--- BOROVETS ---
The resort caters for all standards of skier and snowboarder and in particular, it is ideally suited for beginners and those of intermediate standard. Snowboarders of all levels should find this a great place to practice their skills. There are many "off-piste" routes and sneaky "shortcuts" through the forest parallel to the slopes!

There are horse-drawn sleighs available for a pleasant trip around the resort. For the more adventurous, cross country and biathlon tracks, as well as ski jumps and snow mobiles (Skidoos), are available. Also, several floodlit pistes allow late night skiing.

In addition, Borovets offers fantastic apres-ski and nightlife to suit all ages. There are plenty of bars, cafes, night clubs and discos that stay open into the early hours of the morning. A night out is extremely good value for money with many bars promoting "happy hour" offers. Typically, you can enjoy a nice 3 course meal for under £10!

Borovets is easily accessible with a distance of only 70 km from Sofia (the capital of Bulgaria) and 126 km from the second largest city Plovdiv.

--- SAMOKOV ---
The lively, local town of Samokov is only 6 km away on a straight road. The town has a large, modern supermarket, selling all the food and household products that you would need. There is an excellent fresh fruit and vegetable market and there is a choice of restaurants in the town centre, banks with cash points and a post office.

A return bus operates from Borovets with fares charged at approx 35p, alternatively a taxi will cost approx £3. The town is ideal for shopping and grabbing a bargain, with many items (hats, gloves etc) 1/3 of the price that is charged in Borovets itself (although the prices charged in Borovets are cheap enough!).
