An intro to Borovets: Bulgaria has some excellent under-developed ski and snowboard resorts and Borovets is a fun if a little small resort. The slopes are well looked after, wide and safe. They are well bashed at night and during February, the snow falls almost every night, whilst in the day, the Sun shines. The lifts are a little antiquated, but most slopes can be accessed without a button or drag life. The night life is very cheesy – and a little Anglified. Every evening you will find touts shouting at you to get them into their bar which invariably has cheap boze and Karaoke gallore. Be very wary of the rip-off money exchangers who offer fake rates on their boards.
