Artificial Snow Saves Ski Season in Bulgaria

2006-12-21   |  Standart News, 21st December 2006

Bulgaria's EU accession on January 1 won't send up the cost of the ski lift passes, a poll of Standart shows. Bulgaria's four big winter resorts, Bansko, Borovets, Pamporovo and Vitosha, announced that this winter they won't increase the prices of ski services. Bansko and Pamporovo keep their tradition and preserve the preferential prices for the Bulgarian tourists who are considered regular guests.

Bansko uses 75 snow cannons to fight the global warming effect. This beautiful winter resort is an undoubted frontrunner when it comes to the variety of services and their cost. The swanky resort is the only in Bulgaria which offers 65 kilometers of ski runs.

This season Pamporovo resort has included the price of the insurance in the cost of the ski-lift passes. The skiers can enjoy 22 kilometers of ski runs maintained with the help of five snow-making machines. Lyubomir Stankiisky, head of the resort's ski school, has supervised in person the implementation of safety measures and the cleaning of the ski runs.

The winter kindergarten in the center of Borovetz is one of the amenities of Bulgaria's oldest winter center. It is situated in front of the Rila hotel.

Vitosha - the ski resort closest to Sofia - has introduced almost no novelties this season. The only innovation is the sale of passes for a fixed number of down-slopes, a practice established in Austria.

Chepelare offers shooting with Olympic Champion Ekaterina Dafovska's gun - the newest attraction at this Bulgarian resort, which is gaining popularity. There are 7 ski-runs with a total length of 20 kilometers. The biathlon and cross-country tracks are 15-km-long. This year's acquisitions of the resort include the challenging snowboard track and the Mechi Chal meteorological station.
