Bansko Ski Resort

Bansko: All Seasons Town and Resort

Home to one of the most modern ski resorts in Europe and nestled in the foothills of the spectacular Pirin Mountain range, the beautiful and historic Bansko Town can be found. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bansko is a medieval town that dates back to the 10th Century. First set up by the Thracians many hundreds of years ago, the Romans and Byzantines have also left their mark on the town. The town has preserved its olden style of the cobbled streets and houses more than 100 years old. It is they that give Bansko its inimitable charm. The houses look like monasteries with their high stonewalls and small shuttered windows. Take a wander down the old cobbled streets and see the traditional style buildings which are the main part of Bansko’s charm. The real Bulgarian spirit is hidden behind fortified walls and heavy gates in spacious rooms with wood-carved ceilings and doors, hand-woven carpets and embroidered cushions, in the murals icons and the fine iconostasis of the Saint Trinity church.

         

The unique atmosphere of the town at the foot of the Pirin Mountain is enriched by the characteristic sonority of Bansko male singing, the local sense of humor, the mature red wine and the delicious dishes of traditional Bansko cuisine. The strange feel of the air is one of the most impressive experiences in Bansko – something like smoke or smouldering pine – the magic feeling of something cozy and snug. In the numerous local taverns with the exotic name “mehana” you can sit comfortably, smile, feel the warmth of the open fire and enjoy the soft flavour and the delicious taste of the local sausage called “Old man” /banski starets/.

Bansko combines its atmosphere of a beautiful medieval town with stunning alpine backdrop with first class ski facilities. It is rich in culture and heritage and at the same time, can boast top quality modern ski facilities. The Pirin Mountains are often compared with the French Alps due to their similarity. Due to the alpine character, skiing conditions here are excellent and Bansko is seeing very extensive investment already to turn it into one of the best ski resorts in Bulgaria. New ski lifts have already been installed and the amount of ski runs is being expanded constantly. Snow making facilities have already been improved and skiing can now last into early May. Due to this very extensive investment, the Bansko area is one of the best places to buy into.
