Hi all,

Me and a friend are thinking of going to Bulgaria skiing for a quick week but just wondered if anyone has recently been there just so i know what the conditions are like. Just so i know what to expect!
I am so desperate to go!

Cheers
Jon

Bulgaria is normally very good for skiing...However, I cant speak for this year as I went 3 yrs ago.
Best of luck !

I wouldn't recommend Borovets that late in the season. Snow record isn't great.

Thanks for the advice guys. I think I will just give it a miss this season as most places I look at are touch and go. Think I will have to go to the chill factore.

I really do want to get away at the end of the season but somewhere that's cheap and guaranteed snow. I know that's asking a lot haha.

Mid-March is a great time to go; snow should be good just about everywhere and it's not peak time so there will be some good deals about as long as you're a little flexible.

Hold your nerve and wait until the week before; then check the snow situation and look for a deal - I'd put money on your having a choice of deals around 50% off full price if you do that.

Cheers admin. That does sound like good advice but I am trying to think of a place where snow fall would be good. I did hear that eastern Europe had a dump of snow this week which is promising especially as Bansko is 2500m high. Any other places you could recommend?

Anywhere high altitude would be your best bet.

Hi Jon

I'm having to cancel my place in a ski holiday for next week so would like to sell my ticket! There are 2 tickets available.

The details are:
To: Val D'Isere
Flying From: Any UK Airport with availability on a Crystal flight
Price: GBP340 per person (There are 2 spaces currently as we did not have full occupancy when booked)
Dates: Sat 5th March - Sat 12th March
Operator: Crystal ski
Details: Self Catering and sharing a four person flat.

We have booked 2 flats and there are 3 girls and 3 guys going. Ranging from late 20s to early 40s. All are relaxed, friendly and happy to share with new people of any age.

I really don't want to lose my money and cannot get any refund due to late notice. If you are interested please let me know.
Thanks
Helen
