bansko hire

Would anyone know where I could hire skis, boots and poles for the best price, and also the lift pass? it seems that most online places I am looking at are an absolute rip off!

Thanks

re: bansko hire

i rekon best to pre book all this with the holiday co your going with, cheaper than renting in resort

were going with balken holidays, been informed on this site the gear is very good and best price

if you don't like your ski's, or they need waxing take them back, they will always change them

I would always recommend Bansko Sports across the carpark from the gondola and down the wooden steps.
Very reasonable prices and friendly service. Have been using them for the last 7-8 years

We recommend Pirinsnow, right opposite the gondola across the main road, Misho is brilliant, great English speaker as is his lovely wife... If you use tell Misho that Steve and Wendy sent you and you will get an extra discount... The shop has a new blue sign on the roof facia, and you cannot miss it, straight out of the gondola main door, walk towards the main road (Pirin St) and it is on the other side, about 75m from the main door, overnight storage at no cost, no quibble exchange if ...
