just back from borovets but it will be pamps next time

any1 heading out the snow is excellent at the top down to mid and just ok to the bottom.
however out of 6 days we could not get to the top of the mountain 2 days as the gondola was closed cause of wind and bad weather at the top.

i reported earlier that i loved borovets it was good but when i return to bulgaria next year i will go back to pamps for the following reasons.

the people in pamps much friendier

ski instruction in pamps much higher in borovets had 3 different instructors ...

ski instruction in pamps much higher in borovets had 3 different instructors in the week via borosports. i would describe them all as mountain guides and not instructors.

and in my opinion the slopes in pamps r much more enjoyable.


however the hotel samokov in boro was fine, and the white magic bar opposite it was great

but its pamps next time 4me

NO NO NO !!!!

Go to Italy instead - I've just got back from Cervinia, it was just as cheap as in Borovets, but the Skiing, the mountains the food the booze, everything was so much better than Borovets. I enjoyed Borovets in February but you cannot imagine how much better Italy was.
