Big risk Bill.

It was possible last year, but that was an exception.
Tour companies stop end of March although the lifts will still be in operation as the walkers still use them.

I wouldn't recommend it, but you may be lucky.

Bill - myself and YT have just returned from Bansko and following a wonderful few days of snowfall we were informed that skiing could continue until the 2nd week of April. However, that does depend of course on temperatures over the next few weeks. Keep checking on the forecast Bill, you never know you might just fall lucky. Otherwise hold out until next season and im sure you wont be disappointment with what Bulgaria has to offer you. Good luck. SB

Bill Just got back from Pamps on Saturday. It has been very hot all week and the snow is melting fast. It will not be very good this week let alone April I would give it a miss unless a miracle happens and it snows again.
