Came here for a day of Mountain Biking. We hired our bikes from the shop next to the ticket office and the staff were friendly. The bikes were good quality full suspension but a shame that they were not well maintained, but were useable. The cost per bike was 38lv for a full day which included helmet and armour, plus 25lv for the lift pass. Which I thought was reasonable. There was 4 levels of trails. We only rode the level 1 green trail, that was enough excitement for our abilities. On my second run it took me 32 minutes. We had a look at the other levels which were a lot steeper and included rocky sections and varying degrees of drop-offs. These trails cater for beginners and experts. If you don't fancy the rough terrain, you can take the road down and at half way visit the beautiful lake. For lunch we ate in the restaurant at the top of the Snezhanka TV tower. The food was good and the views were fantastic. In all we had a fun day out.

A good place to spend a weekend in the mountain while skiing. The slopes are really long but narrow for beginners. At some places there is ice as well. There are green, blue, red and black slopes. The daily pass is 62 BGN for adults. It's valid from 9 a.m. till 4:30 p.m. Be careful not to loose your pass. Otherwise you will have to buy a new one. There are several restaurants on the top near the Snezhanka tower. The prices are fair. Not too cheap, not too expensive. There are multiple ski garderobe where you can rent equipment.

Slopes for any level of skiing, not too many people (probably because I was there at the end of the season), so no waiting for the cable cars at all. Beautiful views. You can go up the tower (there is 5 BGN entrance fee). There's a cafe-restaurant, where you can have a drink or meal with a great panoramic view over the mountain. There are some teahouses around the tower and around the ski center Studenets. There are NO public restrooms. You have to pay in order to use the toilets of the teahouses.

Great ski resort with enough different ski pistes and a fun park with several jumps and rails. Some very steep black runs if you are looking for that, and quite a few red ones where you can catch some good speed and carve. Also some blue/green ones for beginners but I cannot review those as I didn't go on them. There are also quite a few places where you can stop for some food or coffee/drink. Definitely a place to visit.

It was awesome! I am considering spending the winters for snowboard here for the next next year's holidays and days off. The prices are low and the choices you have are so many. Family friendly of course and in Sundays the even through house-techno party's with stands and drinks The tracks are clean and great for beginners! The only thing that requires a lot of money is the lift pass which is ~50€ for 1 day per person
