Description

The Pirin Mountains of Bulgaria are absolutely gorgeous. They are a great place to hike, mountaineer and ski and splitboard. And, on this full-day trip, I would like to guide you on a ski touring and splitboarding adventure in one of the finest areas in the Pirin Mountains: Bansko.

Bansko is a small town that operates as a ski resort during the winter months. It is a fantastic gateway to an abundance of top notch ski touring and splitboarding locations in the Pirin Mountains. Full of lifts and hiking trails to the various spots, you can rest assured that based on your skill level, weather conditions and your personal preferences, we will find the perfect one for you. Some of the peaks you can descend include the Todorka Peak and the Cherna Mogila Peak. Thus providing you with descents that range from 700 to 2000 meters!

Due to the variety of ski touring and splitboarding options around Bansko, this trip is open to people of varying skill levels. However, all participants should be in good physical condition.

The slopes around Bansko are some of the best in all of Bulgaria. Furthermore, the views you will get to enjoy of the Pirin Mountains are spectacular. To enjoy this trip, all you have to do is send a request. I look forward to guiding you.

Pavel’s colleague Vanja was our guide. She was a super nice person with excellent English who also speaks several other languages. Vanja was calm and very helpful when we got into one difficult situation. I Highly recommend her.
