Bansko

Bansko is one of the most famous mountain resorts in Bulgaria and a highly regarded ski destination in Eastern Europe. The resort is located at the foot of the Pirin Mountains, about 160 km south of Sofia, making it easily accessible for tourists.
In winter, Bansko offers over 70 km of modern slopes, efficient cable cars and good conditions for skiers of all levels, from beginners to advanced. In addition, prices for ski passes, accommodation and food are generally more affordable than in the larger resorts in the Alps, making it a popular alternative for families and groups.
The town of Bansko combines the traditional Bulgarian atmosphere, with cobbled streets and old stone and wooden houses, with modern areas full of hotels and restaurants. In summer, the resort attracts lovers of hiking, mountain biking and music festivals, being an excellent starting point for exploring the Pirin National Park, included in the UNESCO heritage.
