re:bansko ski road

Totally agree ! We have also had a few bad scares on the snow road it really needs to be policed by the powers that be , before somebody is seriously hurt , we have seen and been involved in several accidents with people that either cannot ski going flat out with no regard for others on the slopes .

Policing Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad Noooooooooooooooo, we do not want this.. especially by the 'powers that be'
The ski road is as the name suggests, a ski road.. it will always get busy at the end of the skiing day as everyone comes off the mountain.. the abilities being mixed will always lead to problems, but thats how it is... If its a problem to you come down on the gondola, or earlier Wink

re: bansko ski road

Agree with Steve C!! We were there 2nd to 9th, came down ski road every day. The ski road is always busy at that time of day, so if you don't feel confident you need to go on the gondola. Not sure where you found the ice though as we found it really soft and hard going - especially at the bottom, (although maybe that was because we'd called into the Cave Wink Wink).
