Bulgaria Ski discussion board

andy i was in borovets last week and had been skiing once before and had no major issues skiing do either of the yestebet runs; 3 is slightly easier in my opinion... also worth noting for the more experienced skiers in your group is the black run (fonfon i thinks its called) is definitley worth a go; it is officially closed but if i can get down it in one piece then im sure you can!! also the top of yestebets 1 is fine, you can ski back down to the mid-way gondola station from there and that is another nice run... have a good time.

I class them as easy reds. However, they can suck you in because they are wide and rolling you may find yourself travelling much faster than you would perhaps prefer.

Fon Fon although rated black...Mmm I've skied more challenging reds elsewhere. But when it's icy it's fun fun fun. Not as wide as the reds. Can get quite interesting at the end when it bottle necks to a steep narrow track to the middle station.

Worth practicing your short swings on the Markudjik pistes and mix in long and medium turns to get used to varying turn shapes before heading down the Fon Fon.

As with all ski slopes, looks can be deceptive - especially from the Gondola.

Hope this helps.
