About Borovets
Borovets is Bulgaria's oldest ski resort, established in the late 19th century as a royal hunting retreat in the pine forests of the Rila Mountains. At 58km of marked piste spread across three sectors — Sitnyakovo, Martinovi Baraki, and Yastrebets — it is a modest but well-organised destination that punches well above its weight on value, with lift passes and ski hire costing a fraction of comparable Alpine alternatives. The resort suits beginners, families on a budget, and intermediate skiers looking for a relaxed week without the price tag of western Europe, with Sofia Airport just 70 minutes away making it one of the most accessible budget ski breaks available to US travelers flying into Europe.
