Gem

There is an outdoor Ice Rink in the middle of the village, but it is very small.

A couple of the bigger hotels have swimming pools and there is ten pin bowling alley in the Samokov Hotel.

Hope this helps...

Have a good time

Regards

So Gem you can hike different tours to the region with different distance and grad of difficult.
The small ice ring is between Rila and Samokov Hotel.
A trip to Sofia is possible the buses goes every 30 minutes from Busstation Samokov town, and a tour cost 3 levs. There is a new Restaurant in Samokov town called Old House, tell you some more when I'm back on friday for eating there.
The most hotels offer pools, jaccuzies or sauna, great is a trip by the horse men to Hotel Royal, do it ...

The most hotels offer pools, jaccuzies or sauna, great is a trip by the horse men to Hotel Royal, do it on a clear day perfect mountain panaroma.
The british tour operators offered wine tasting in a typical bulgarian mechana is okay.

As people have said before there is a small ice rink and a bowling alley not to mention loads of bars which are just so cheap! There is a ski jump show by all the instructors one night a week, there is also a Bulgarian night which to be honest is best missing because it is a pile of poo. We went because it was free Booze all night but it would have been cheaper buying our own drinks as the bar shut at bout 11. Where are you flying from? We fly from Manchester
