Bansko Resort
Sat 4th or 11th January 2025 Departure 7 nights
Winner of World Ski Awards’ “Best Ski Resort In Bulgaria” every year since 2013, Bansko offers 75km of uninterrupted ski runs, great snow conditions and a unique combination of a modern ski resort and a historic town with an incredible choice of apres-ski bars, restaurants and activities.
As a non-euro destination, Bulgaria is proud to be able to offer you the best value for money ski services in Europe. Pre-booking your ski extras with us before travelling is the best way to save on your next ski holiday to Bansko.
Situated at the foot of the Pirin Mountains, Bansko Holidays take place on a UNESCO World Heritage site, and it’s easy to see why with its quaint cobbled streets, where you can still hear the local Bansko dialect being used and old clock tower, where the bell has been measuring the hours for over 150 years.
In less than 20 minutes a fast gondola cable lift will take you to the modern ski centre, situated on the upper slopes. At the end of the day it is up to you to decide whether to return on the gondola or ski/board down the ski road, which marks Bansko as one of the few resorts in the world to offer this option.
Bansko offers a unique 16 km uninterrupted run starting from Todorka Peak, the highest point in Bansko, with numerous pistes all the way down to the base station of the gondola lift. All the pistes are equipped with artificial snow machines to ensure a great skiing/boarding experience even in warmer conditions. At the end of the day there is a ski road that enables you to ski/board right into the town of Bansko.
