Pamporovo Ski Resort
Pamporovo is a very friendly, purpose-built resort which offers a range of beautifully scenic runs on the Snezhanka mountain. It is well known for its ski school, excellent for first timers, an efficient lift system and a free shuttle bus service linking everything together. The atmosphere is always fun with a varied nightlife and excellent value prices, so you can enjoy a great all round skiing holiday without breaking the bank! Food in Bulgaria is simple and traditional.
Beginners





Pamporovo’s ski terrain is ideal for first-timers, with no less than 11 easy slopes to learn on. The local ski school runs special English language group lessons which begin at the Malina lifts, and you should easily be skiing up at the top of the mountain by the end of the week. Take advantage of our special “Learn to Ski” weeks to help you on your way.
Intermediates



Moderate intermediates and reasonable skiers will find Pamporovo a very good place for their second or third ski holiday. If you take the Malina chairlift to the middle station, followed by the Studenec lift to the summit, you’ll find a choice of wide, flattering runs, leading back to the village, ideal for practising your parallels
Advanced

Stronger skiers will head for the aptly named “Wall”, a steep and challenging black mogul field. There is an international slalom course to time yourself on, as well as some interesting long reds including the men's and women's downhill pistes.
Snowboarding
