Snow Forecast For Next 12 Days
The Bansko ski season is delivering really nice conditions. The last three days I’ve been enjoying 25cm+ of fresh snow higher up on the plato. The very warm temperatures of the last week are now a thing of the past. But still above freezing level in town means the snow has melted here.

But fear not. We’re into the fourth day of at least twelve superb days ahead. It’s time to come to Bansko (click on the writing above for my quote and booking tool for lift passes, ski hire, ski school, private lessons and transfers.
Watch my snow forecast taken with the help of Mira and Neil from the Dream Hotel with their fabulous drone.
The drone is a DJI prosumer model. It has a auto return home function and has prabably the best software to control the flights via a dedicated mobile app.
Filming this report was fun. I am sure drones will be able to deliver better images for the snow reports, without the somewhat awkward process of using a GoPro camera on stick.
Forecast
At first, it’s snow up higher the mountain, but as we move on to Tuesday 27th January the snow will fall in the town and the winter snow coverage in Bansko will return.
It’s an image that I, and all winter sports enthusiasts, crave for.
So that is the good news.
I’ll be bringing more reports on the snow coverage and some tips on making the most of the fresh snow which is, once again, going to fall this week.
But for now I encourage all keen advanced skiers to reserve a pair of our all mountain skis (e.g. Dynastars) and be ready for some great times in Bansko. Beginners and early intermediates should always choose our excellent standard skis, but if you are more advanced and can ski confidently a red run and tackle a black run, then choose skis and snowboards from the VIP range.
All prices are fully discounted, and adjusted for exchange rate movements. For a quote just click here and then on the colourful writing below and wait for the quote and booking form to open.
You can now book all you 6, 9 and 13 day lift passes + all combinations of hire, lessons, including individual group lessons and transfers on iOS (iPhone and iPad), as well as Android, Windows and OSX.
Ski and curry
The day ends well; curry.
The Snowman at The Dream Hotel sees the Indian and Afghanistan husband and wife chefs prepare a wonderful fresh curry.
I also tried a slice of pizza. I was amazed as most pizza in Bulgaria is awful. This one had real mozzarella and nice natural thin base and a toping that was generous.

Hi Lance, do you think there may be lift closures due to winds?
Hi Carl, There may be — but all is okay for now. Thank you visiting Bansko Blog
Sounds fun. Thanks for the detail info. Will be there soon.
Hi Lance!
Can you do a little coverage of the snowpark? We’ll be arriving on Saturday there, and staying a week.
Hi Lassi, Yes I will — high winds today prevented me from getting there. Fresh snow arriving will make it rather good next week. 🙂
