Anyone know when the ski season in Bansko officially ends this year?
When is the exact day the lifts stop running? planning a late-late trip in April.

I hear conflicting stories on the web, from Mid April to into May.
Anyone shed any light?

Don`t know the answer to this but all I will say is don`t risk it. Ski area not the highest and it is still not looking like the best despite a European dump.April is hit and miss as it is, so you will need to look at somewhere like Val Thorens if you want to have the chance of some snow.....Anyone feel free to shoot me down, but wouldn`t waste my money booking in advance...got to chase the snow this season sadly....Jo
A bad day on the slopes is better than a good day in the office !

I've just recently got back from Bansko and it's Mid April

Best advice for you if you go is to get up on the slopes very early and get most of your ski-ing done in the morning as it can get very slushy in the afternoons

Also Lift Pass and Ski hire very reasonable

Its been a funny season this year. I went 9th - 17th March and conditions weren't great. However since then they have had good dumps of snow with more forecast and its looking really good there.
