Pistes in Borovets

Hi, we are staying in the Iglika Villa's and it is the first time to Borovets this year with kids in tow, did Bansko last year and thought it was fantastic. Believe that where we are staying there are the slopes near by us by the Rila but how far on foot to main gondola?? Anyone stayed in the Iglika Villa's/chalets??? Cheers me dears!

you are pretty much right on the slopes. There is a good beginners slope right next to the Hotel which will be good for the kids.

Gondola is a 3/4 min walk away, depending on kids speed.

Thanks that helps a lot, it looks like there are quite a variation in runs, just hope their red runs aren't too steep!!

Hi, stayed in iglika hotel and if you walk through the back of the rila which is facing the iglika you will get to the slopes this way quicker than walking all the way round to the front to the slopes.
