Ski World Cup


My sources tell me that Bansko are in line to host a World Cup Ski Event in 2009, expect an announcement in the future confirming this.

For the forthcoming winter, Bansko is hosting the 2007 European Biathlon Championship 18-26 February, which will give Bansko fantastic media coverage.

I think you will all now agree what Bulgarian Ski Resort is the No 1.

There are a couple of Alpine competitions in January. One in the middle the other at the end of the month. I don't have the schedule with me at the moment, i'll have to check and advise later!

re: Ski World Cup

Bankso Bob, is there any chance you could post the schedule or a link to one for events taking place in Bansko this winter? I know that I'd be interested to have a look and should imagine lots of others would agree. Question

Hi Daniel,

The runs will not be shut, the cross country track is seperate. You will have an opportunity to watch the action though!
