Slopes/runs Bansko
The ski resort of Bansko is very varied and has slopes of all difficulty levels. Up in the ski area, most of the slopes are easy and intermediate, but experts can also find attractive challenges with the “Tomba” black World Cup slope and “Tomba's sleeve”. The Alpine Ski World Cup is held in Bansko. Beginners are attracted to the practice areas around Bunderishka Polyana. This is also the starting point for the long “Ski road №1”, a very easy and long slope down to the valley. Additional challenging slopes can be found around Chalin Valog. Many slopes lead down to the valley through forest glades. In the upper area above the treeline, there are beautiful views of the Pirin Mountains.
