just wondered if anyone can advise on the skiing conditions in Borovets, Bulgaria, im off there 13th-20th march for my first skiing trip with a large group and understand there is very little or even no snow in parts, can anyone confirm this? im keeping an eye on the forecast and only 2cm appears to be forecast for a couple of days, getting a little concerned as thinking i may turn up in march with no snow and be disappointed :(

Won't be hard to have better skiing than I had!!
The chances of you having as little snow as I had have to be slim - so good luck.
Providing it stays below zero the snow cannons will work, so the nursery slopes will have snow. The only problem for beginners will be if the weather is generally bad or there are high winds and they shut the lifts; either way you may see a sudden (big) influx of skiiers onto the nursery slopes outside the Rila hotel.
For a beginner, this is not fun as the slopes will be packed solid and will make learning 100x harder.
Hope you have a better experience than I did!!

If you can afford it i would look to go somewhere else.
I have been there twice (We didn't learn from the first time)
