Bulgaria Ideal for Ski Retreats
With snow still on the ground for much of Britain, many people's thoughts may have turned to ski holidays and mountain retreats. Many places offering skiing can be very expensive, making any plans for a last minute getaway unaffordable. However, Bulgaria remains a budget friendly option for those wanting to enjoy skiing away from iconic and famed resorts.
With flights to Sofia easily accessible, a trip up to Bansko isn't hard. Just 160km from Sofia, it is easy to bus or even drive, and with the recent increase in popularity Bansko now is one of Europe's top ski retreats. With the Rila range containing Europe's sixth highest peak, the scenery is truly stunning, and with Bansko dating back to the Middle Ages, there are lots of cultural treats to enjoy when skiing and snowboarding have lost their allure.
Speedy ski lifts and 75km of snowy slopes make Bulgaria an ideal spot for any last minute break. With prices being very affordable for many, individuals enjoying the British snow will easily be able to dash to Bansko for some winter sports fun. Bulgaria's coast is also within easy reach and a double location holiday could combine snowy slopes and beautiful beaches in one trip.
