Winter Mountain
The Resort
The beautiful winter resort is located just above the picturesque town of Bansko, around 12km up the Pirin Mountain.
Top station of the ski lift.
The 8 seater Gondola cable car takes you from Bansko town itself straight to the first stop Banderishka. You can enjoy a coffee or head further up the mountain. A number of cafes, restaurants and ski-bars can be discovered around the Bansko ski tracks, offering local cuisine along with drinks, juices and coffee. On sunny days the umbrella tops of the ski bars fold down to let you enjoy the mountain rays whilst the music pumps out for you to soak up the ski resort atmosphere!

Continuing up the mountain is made possible with five 4-seat lifts of the latest Doppelmayer models, one 3-seat lift by Poma, 7 drags and 10 baby drags. The total length of the wire equipment in the resort is 26km.
SKIING & SNOWBOARDING TO SUIT EXPERIENCE
The geographical location high in the mountain and the technical capability of the resort with its more than 160 snow cannons secure snow coverage from December to May. Higher up the mountain extreme winter sports fans will enjoy the fun park and the half pipe. Giant snow needles known as snow towers are also unique to the resort - an unusual alternative to the half-pipe. If you have a bit of a competitive streak in you, then there are also regular competitions for both skiers and snowboarders.
You can have private lessons one to one or join the local ski schools depending on your ability. Our partner ski and snowboard school can tailor the lesson specific to your requirements for all the family.
