    Since Bansko is situated at the food of the mt Vihren, and is situated in a region with snowy winters it’s not a surprise that you can go skiing there in winters. It seems that Bansko is really investing in this kind of tourism since they are eager to break down the nature for installing ski-lifts at the national park. Since I don’t ski myself regularly I can only provide some informations on this sport I found on internet: Bansko is, in respect to other ski resorts a less popular place for skiing at the moment of writing, so this has two consequences: on the one side you don’t have things like après ski activities, on the other side its cheap and there are not many tourist on organized tours. So, Bansko is a nicer place to stay, for its not overcrowded and has a special atmosphere then, and its easier to reach from Sofia (compared to a more popular place such as Borovets) The negative thing is that the slopes are difficult to reach with private transport. (However there should be busses)

    I havent been skiing for 20 years,and what a wonderful place to recapture my skiing skills,and for Billy to learn.

    In the Gondola station theres a rental area,but the staff are`nt freindly at all,they just give you the boots and skis not bothering to show you how tight they shoud be,how to get on and off your skis.
    I found them abrupt and unfriendly.
    However my mate Bob rented some skis from Bansko Rental Barn and found them very helpful there.
