About Borovets

Borovets is Bulgaria's oldest ski resort, set in a pine forest beneath Musala — the Balkans' highest peak. It's even cheaper than Bansko, making it popular with student groups and budget holidays. The terrain is limited but sufficient for a week, and the nightlife is lively if unsophisticated.
