Bansko develops with extremely fast temps, so now this is one of the best ski-resorts, no only in Bulgaria, but also in Europe. Here you will find new opportunities not only for skiing, but also for the snowboarding, for the extreme sports, biathlon and cross-country skiing. Bansko offers two brand new pistes, and for extreme skiers there is the so called fun-park zone. One of them connects Platoto with the Jelezen most site and the other piste is from Kolarski pat to Banderishka polyana. These pistes wonderfully define the entire net of totally 14 pistes, making the general length of marked ski-runs, including ski-roads 65 km.

There is a bonus for each skier - the new 7 kilometers long lighted ski-road between Banderishka polyana and Bansko. There are pistes that offer wonderful conditions for night skiing, that could be available for everyone from 18 30 until 21 30. Snowboarders can enjoy the first on the Balkans fun-park, which offers the option to ski over present artificial bumps and jumps as well as to build such on their own. There is, also, a half-pipe, located by the place where the famous snow towers of Bansko are usually built, which offers, both skiers and snowboarders, an arena to boast their latest tricks.

In this ski resort, 80% of the slopes are covered by snow cannons. This provide guaranteed snow cover even when the weather conditions could not be as they are expected. There will be available a range of off-piste skiing and snowboarding, catering for the more adventurous in search of fresh powder.

For your maximal comfort and convenience, Bansko resort offers 8-man Gondola cable car by Doppelmayer, five 4-seat lifts of the latest Dopplemayer models, one 3-seat lift by Poma, 7 drags and 10 baby drags. SkiData guarantees the easy access to all lifts, due to specific chip cards, secured by them. The new 8-seat lift gondola "Dopelmaier" is over 6 kilometers long, and started working last season. It connects the town with Banderishka meadow, and when one gets on it, he feels the incredible feeling such as he flows over the snow slopes of Pirin towards the heart of the mountain. If you use it, it is possible to leave your car on the parking on the start station of the lift. Bansko offers 26 kilometers of ski-lifts, and with their trained stuff, all skiers can be provided with professional help.
