re: Driving

On the right, but it's true what footfixer says....... in the resorts they tend to drive straight down the middle.

Would not recommend driving yourself though, unless you can read Bulgarian aa none of the signs are in English.

Very few (if any) rental companies in the resorts. Not enough call for them as most people are already where they want to be. Having spent 22 holidays in Bulgaria I would STRONGLY recommend you think again.

We are also thinking of driving to Pamporovo in February.

Does anybody know what the road conditions are like? Also, is there secure parking in/near the Murgavets?

Thanks,
Dani

re: Driving

snow/ice/death something like that,

Unless you have really good car control i'd advise against car rental in BG winter resorts! Confused
