Bulgaria Ski discussion board

I've been to Borovets 3years in a row now and evey year find myself on here worring about the weather and praying for snow.

This year however I have not booked beforehand and will be looking for a last minute deal the back end of March when a large group of my mates have already booked.

There is myself and 7 others waiting until the last minute and will make our decision based on snow conditions and look at booking a couple of days before going, if the conditions are no good we will go elswhere.

Whats your thoughts are more and more people leaving it late before booking these days due to dissapointing conditions over the last few years?

Hi Ramsknackers,

I agree with you, the last 3 years we have booked well in advance to go to Borovets.We are going out on the 30th January and are very worried about the snow.

Also looking at the prices now I reckon we would have saved a few hundred pounds by waiting till the last minute,we are a family of 4 .There seems plenty of availability on all hotels and like you say can then go where the snow is, seems madness now to have booked so early .

Next year we will be waiting to the last minute, for the best price and the best snow .

Last two years have prebooked. Due to other circumstances this year, we haven't done so, and are looking at booking in the next couple of weeks or so to go at the back end of Feb. Given the way the snow has been, am glad we are in the situation now that we can pick and choose and not be fretting over whether we'll actually get any skiing in. Having done it this way now, think it's the way forward, I'm afraid.

Incidentally, some cracking deals about at the moment for Boro, if you were willing to take the chance there'll suddenly be a massive dump in the next 2 weeks or so - Inghams advertising Bor/Edelweiss at £199 pp from manchester on 23rd Jan.
