What time does the Gondola open?

Does anyone know what time the gondola in bansko opens? We usually get on the slopes for 9 but i was hoping to get up there earlier on the 18th onwards to get the best of the snow before everyone starts piling on...

When i was there 6 weeks ago it was 8:30, im off on Saturday just hoping the slopes are covered with enough snow? i presume they will use the artificial machines if need be?

8.15 but they send instructors up first. We always got there for about 20 past and were always one of first 9 or 10 up.Also that way you will avoid any queues and get best conditions

Yeah, 08:15 - 08:30 is the perfect time to get there. No queues, your own personal gondola for you and your mates - thus avoiding the overpowering stench of garlic from the Bulgar's staple breakfast - and apparently hangover curing - pig trotter soup! Plus about an hour's worth of freshly groomed corduroy to play on.

Heaven! Very Happy
