I have just returned from my second week of skiing in bansko this year, all this stuff about the snow is bull, as always the bansko piste cleaners are busting there guts to make the pistes skiiable and they are doing an exceedingly good job. The snow cannons are terrific and i havent noticed any change compared to my other 7 years of skiing in bansko/bulgaria. I dont know if any of you hardened old nuts remember the season 5 years ago when there was no snow in this period and then winter ...
I have just returned from my second week of skiing in bansko this year, all this stuff about the snow is bull, as always the bansko piste cleaners are busting there guts to make the pistes skiiable and they are doing an exceedingly good job. The snow cannons are terrific and i havent noticed any change compared to my other 7 years of skiing in bansko/bulgaria. I dont know if any of you hardened old nuts remember the season 5 years ago when there was no snow in this period and then winter finally came, snow will happen it always does!!! I'm booked to go again in febuary half tterm, they expect the snow will be there then and even if it's not i'll look forward to it... please feel free to ask any questions

any info on thew new guiness hotel?re: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
if you're not staying in a hotel is there anywhere to go for a swim/sauna?re: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
glad you had a good time. how far is it from the Gondola to the centre of town?Cheers
re: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
I don't know of any public place to go for a swim or a sauna, however many of the hotels will be more than happy to let you use their facilities for a small priceBB
re: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
the gondola is up toward the top of the town and walking down i would say about a 5/10 minute walk, without skis on!!!BB
re: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
town centre is about 1km from the gondola, a downhill walkre: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
probably best to walk down to the town on the road to avoid the numerous boulders, low hanging rooves and trees!re: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
What are the beginner slopes like as it is my friends first ever time skiing and she is really excited, cheers!re: Just back from Bansko... any questions?
Snow wise the begginer slopes are fine, i cant say i skiied them much but as a warm up and down session a couple of times. However they are jam packed so lets hope your friend is good at split second decisions!!! The ski road down into bansko is glorious as ever albeit a little icy. So overall it's not to bleak.BB
