Greetings from snowy Borovets! As the resort is getting busier we are here to update you on the curretn snow conditions.
Snow and Slopes
The spring-like weather we had in the past few days was a bit harsh on the snow conditions, however, slopes are still in decent condition in the lower parts of the resort and much better at the higher ones.
