Bulgaria Ski discussion board

Hi Darren

As other people have said above, if you're not overly bothered about clubbing then the castle is perfect. It has 2 decent bars in the complex, one which serves good food, so you'll be absolutely fine. If you do want to venture into town do as Mark mentioned above and walk down the piste (take a torch or use your phone) and then just get a cab back ( you won't want to walk back up the hill!). It'll only set you back a fiver or so; not going to break the bank. I don't know if they have ski storage at the Castle but I would imagine they do. They definitely do at Evridika Hills which I have used ( it's next door ) so might be worth checking that out too to see how I compares on price (I have no idea).

Both hotels are in a great location and you'll have a fab time. Enjoy.

http://www.chepelarecenter.com/?lang=en&p=72 this link will give you some info on Chepelare. You can get a cab there, they'll take your ski gear, and it shouldn't cost too much as it's not far. Tell them a time and they'll pick you up too and take you home. Having skied there a few times I'd say it's definitely worth a day out for a change of scenery. Lift passes are cheap, around 30 lev I think for a day. so around 12 quid. It's a fun little resort with one or two great runs. V good for boarding too with hardly any flat bits.
