May The Force Be With You; Snow Falling

Star Wars crewe, may the force...

A fun snow and apres ski report from the Star Wars gang. Phil and his friends feel the Bansko force and mess around as only a group of lads on a ski trip can. Just one way to enjoy Bansko this winter. Click play to watch the video snow report:

And it’s days like these the hard work makes it all worthwhile for me. Enjoying the company of people having fun is a great force for the good. Talking of goodness read on for news on the white stuff.

Snow forecast

As I type, its raining in town and snowing on Todorka, at the top — but I’m expecting temperature to drop tonight and snow will fall. I expect around 15 cm but could be more.

Lift queues

The gondola queue on 2nd February was far too long. Yesterday, the 3rd it was not bad at all — 07:50 start for the gondola. Full speed for the gondola too and a real attempt to get 8 people in each gondola.

The combination of Turkish and Bulgarian school holidays compounded the numbers in the resort.

Ski hire, lift pass, lessons bookings

Lift pass bookings are still unaffected but, until the 20th February, all lessons both group and private are fully booked too. From 21st February to 16th April (end of ski season) all bookings are being processed.

From 21st February lessons are fulling up fast and, once again, I urge you to book today to avoid missing out.

Shuttle transfers must be booked in the Bansko App.
