There is no safe time for snow coverage in Bulgaria resorts. You see, Bulgaria is a southern country, besides the mountains are not too tall. Bulgarian resorts can't be compared to the resorts in the Alps, for sure.
Probably the chance for good skiing in Feb in Boro is around 70-80%, but it's not 100%.

Ahhh right i see...its a hard one to call i guess. 70 - 80% at the price of this deal is probably enough for me though! Theres always the apres ski to keep us entertained anyways Very Happy

By the end of February you will almost certainly be fine. By then the snow 'should' have improved a lot, especially up the top of the mountain.

Theres always the chance it wont be 100% on the lower slopes but there will definetly be skiing to be had there!

We go out on the 30th Jan.

What are the chances of skiing then.

I know it is hard to say but i am starting to wish I had paid the extra and gone to France.

Everything crossed for snow fall,
