Better hurry the snow is disappearing fast. Plenty in Pamporovo for a week or 2 though. So you have already decided on buying a property without visiting the country ! Shrewd Investor

There is a board park about 15km from pamps, a place called momchilovtsyre: Resort advice
Just back from Bansko. There are lots of appartments going up there and talk of expanding the ski areas.A new road to link Bansko to Sofia is already on the way to cut the transfer time from the present 2.75 hours. I didn't do as much chatting to the locals as Steve C. apparently did but those I did speak with were friendly if not very smiley! The mountain rescue were very efficient for my 10 year old who had a bad fall on the slopes but happily didn't break his leg! Being a nice little town ...

The mountain rescue were very efficient for my 10 year old who had a bad fall on the slopes but happily didn't break his leg! Being a nice little town there is a bit more to the place than Pamps ( visited there 2 and 3 years ago). About the same amount of ski runs at present but Bansko is much newer - lots more well kept toilets for us ladies! and plenty of good quality ski hire. Hardly any queues for lifts but that may be because it was low season and beer at less than 1 lev in some bars.
Hope this gives you some idea,

Have a good time in Bulgaria if you're going soon. Bansko still has loads of snow on the upper slopes - only the tops of some piste markers were showing last week. From the webcams (go to www.banskoski.com and click the union flag for the english version) the temperature has dropped enough to hold the snow for some time yet.
Thanks for asking after my lad - he's fine, even got back on his skis before we came home. Couldn't believe he was out of the medical centre x-rayed and bandaged within ...

Happy appartment hunting,
Little Al.
