Apart from being the best ski resort in eastern Europe, the mountains surrounding Bansko are a National Park and a listed Unesco World Heritage site.

The Knights Lodge complex has 55 apartments with a 24hr reception/security, sauna, jacuzzi and fitness room on site. It has its own bar and restaurant on the ground floor - the Irish Bar. There are further pool and spa facilities available at the many nearby 4 or 5 star hotels at minimal cost.

Other apartments are available in the same complex for larger groups.

Skiing in Bansko

Bansko is the newest and the most rapidly developing ski resort in Bulgaria. 100 million Euros have been invested in Bansko to install a state of the art ski facility with equipment specifically designed for the Pirin slopes. A new 8-man gondola carries skiers and snowboarders from the ski centre outside the town to the beginners area and ski-school at 1600m in approximately 20 minutes.

There are 17 pistes, including a 16 km uninterrupted run from beneath the summit where you can ski down to the base station of the Gondola lift at the outskirts of town. The last 7 km of the slope is lit, and the entire facility is equipped with artificial snow machines to ensure a great skiing experience even in warmer conditions - Bansko is one of the only resorts in the world where this is possible. Bansko has the newest technology in hands free ski passes fitted with micro-chips readable through the pocket of a ski jacket.
The skiing conditions in Bansko are excellent with more than 50% of the slopes covered by snow cannon making sure there is always good snow cover. Bansko has the best snow record of all Bulgarian ski resorts. The ski season starts in the middle of December and carries on right through into April.

Bansko is ideal for beginners and there are many English speaking instructors at the ski schools. For intermediates the ski area is fantastic with fabulous views and many well-maintained wide tree-lined runs. The advanced skiier can try the Alberto Tomba black, and there is good off-piste available.

For Snowboarders there is a brand new dedicated snowboarders area with a half-pipe facility 90 metres high by 16 metres wide. Paragliding and heli-skiing is also available locally.

The facilities in Bansko will impress any skier who appreciates modern lifts, the latest in ski and snowboard equipment as well as low prices, especially when compared to the Alps.

Bansko Town

Bansko is a unique combination of a modern ski resort and an old town with cobbled streets and pretty old buildings. Apres-ski is centered around local 'Mehanas' – friendly taverna style restaurants serving traditional Bulgarian cuisine and drinks, often with roaring log fires and live entertainment.
