First Time in Pamporovo

Me and 4 of my friends (semi professional sock models) are arriving in resort on Sunday 29th February.
I have read a lot on here about rain and melting snow, hopefully all the snow wont have all gone by the time we arrive.
Where are the best places to go and whats the night life like...?

re: First Time in Pamporovo

Thanks for the advice.....
I am not sure if i can afford the extra baggage costs for carrying a couple of snow cannons with me.....
I will just pack my speedos and spend next week in the pool in the hotel instead.....

I see you are travelling there yourself in a couple of weeks. Have you been there before.?

re: First Time in Pamporovo

Can't possibly be worse that two seasons ago when there was no snow by the Thursday of my trip - even with the instructors shovelling it onto the runs from under the trees! I gave up the ski-ing because not enough snow but still walked the mountains, had lunch at the top, bungy jumped halfway down and partied the nights away in BJs. You will enjoy whatever the weather.

David plenty of snow in the resort and more forcast so do not worry you will be able to ski. The resort is great not sure what else you want to know as you said you have been reading the reports, if there is anything you do want to know just ask! Very Happy
