Your first day may well be spent on the lower slopes but it is not unknown to go to the top and use the nursery slope there.The main 3 man to the top is not to bad if you look forward because it is tree lined and the snow is normally very deep you get the impression you are not that high. Coming down do what my other half does and shut your eyes!!

Pamporovo has 1 man, 2 man, 3 man and 4 man lifts.As there are no women lifts she will not be able to use any of them
Seriously now, ....... the highest point is probably on the 3 man 3/4 of the way up where it is approx. 40ft above the ground. Very safe though - never yet heard of anybody falling except on dismount.

Is there one big cable car that takes loads of people up at the same time like borovets ? im just trying to get the feel of the place, or maybe im showing signs of mass excitement, i cant wait to get there, snow or no snow
re: ski lifts in pamps

thats cool, just got to the xmas thing out the way then its all eyes on pamps......re: ski lifts in pamps
When it has just snowed its absolutely beautiful going up on the lifts - so peaceful I love it, but a little chilly, and do tell your wife to hang onto the sticks, forget hanging on for dear life, just hang onto the sticks.... unless you want a ski instructer with a nasty frown on his face when he goes to collect it (and that is if you are lucky!) if you drop anything its a gamble as to whether you will see it again... many a camera and mobile has been lost until the snow melts.....re: ski lifts in pamps
last year our instructor took us to the nursery slope for our lesson. Our first ever snowboarding holiday, never used a chair lift before. When we got to the top we got told off for not putting the bar down.......well no-one told us.None of us fell out so they must be safe.

i dropped a glove from the 3 man lift last year on my last day and it was the best run of the whole holiday to get it back
