Nico - although I love BG and have seen great changes in 20 years, dual pricing does go on, mainly in restaurants. That's why I usually eat with my BG friends.re: Horseriding In Borovets??
Hi Nico,
Zdravei. And hello from Great Britain...well was great once. Very good point about it being seasonal. I have only been to Boro' twice. First time was in 1989 when the country was still communist and things did seem a bit austere then. I have friends in the Czech Republic and know that in Prague and other large cities a double pricing system does exist. Am in Boro next week with my eldest son. So hope there is some snow. Nico...er...if i mention your name ....do you think I may ...

Mr W and borogirl,
Dualpricing is "officially" forbidden in BG now. I think a big improvement.( before my BG friends bought my skipass for me about 50% cheaper). Of course everybody knows - like everywhere - tourist pay more in a skiresort than locals do in ( out of resort) bars/restaurants. Mr. W. go down to city Samokov for shopping / restaurant / hairdresser / buy food / cigarettes / alcohol etc. overthere, much cheaper than in Borovets. Enjoy your time with your son ( much more ...

6 days to go....Only 5 working days.re: Horseriding In Borovets??
Do i have to know how to ride a horse before i can do horse riding on snow? I haven't been riding a horse, does it mean this activity is not applicable to me?anyone know where i can try snow doo?anywhere good in borovets?
re: Horseriding In Borovets??
CalvinIt is trekking (no galloping), so as long as you are confident to sit on a horse and have the right money,they will take you
Ask your ski instructor to arrange or walk round and arrange yourself. They usually go out past the ski jump - good fun
re: Horseriding In Borovets??
I used to love h'riding but had a bad fall (many years ago) And decided to do something less risky....yep...skiing!!!
Hope those horses don't smeel as bad as the ones pulling the carts with their poop bags behind them. My tummys churnin at the thought.
re: Horseriding In Borovets??
