Freeride

Hi! What about freeriding in Bansko? Does anybody know about off piste snowboarding with the guide? Is the end of february or the beginning of March is good fo freeriding?

Yep, if conditions are right, you can hire a guide from bottom of Gondola ski school, and probably other places too, our guide showed us a great gully to the right of top station, just not enough snow last year and we weren't good enough anyway but it looked excellent for Bansko.

Yes, you can hire safety gear in Bansko from the guides you hire.

re: Freeride

Prices vary depending on what guide you hire. As Sam said, go onto Banskoski.com and there is some information there. Otherwise Google Bansko off-piste ski guiding and you will find more information on guiding companies etc.
