Bansko Ski Zone - Ski Runs and Tracks

Bansko is a resort which is developing with extremely fast temps. The concessionaire Ulen provides new opportunities for the skiers, for the snowboarders, for the extreme sports, biathlon and cross - country skiing. There are two brand new pistes and for extreme skiers there is the so called fun - park zone. One of the pistes connects Platoto with the Jelezen most site and the other one is from Kolarski pat to Banderishka polyana. These pistes are wonderfully defining the net of totally 14 pistes.

Total length of marked ski runs, including ski roads: 65 km.

A bonus for the skier is the new 7 kilometers long lighted ski - road between Banderishka polyana and the town. Some of the pistes offer wonderful conditions for night skiing, which is available for everyone from 18.30 until 21.30. Snow boarders can enjoy the first on the Balkans fun - Park.

It offers the option to ski over present artificial bumps and jumps as well as to build those on their own. Also, the half -pipe located by the place where Bansko’s famous snow towers are usually built, offers both skiers and snowboarders an arena to boast their latest tricks.

80% of the slopes are covered by snow cannons to provide guaranteed snow cover even when the weather conditions might not be as expected.

A range of off piste skiing and snowboarding is available catering for the more adventurous in search of fresh powder.
