Awesome ski spot. Really close to Cluj-Napoca, and overall a good time when it comes to skiing, snowboarding and other winter sports! Besides that, there are multiple places where you can stop to take a break, eat something and regain your energy. Multiple slopes are available, from beginner to more advanced. I recall counting 4 in total, besides the side-paths you can take throught the forest if you feel up for it. Powder days are amazing here, as you can easily find the harder slopes ungroomed, full of fresh snow. Only disadvantages I can think of are the face that there is only one main lift, that gets really crowded if a lot of people decide to visit (longest I’ve personally stood in line waiting was 15-20min). Besides that, the parking is not able to handle the large amount of visitors on the weekends (be prepared to have to search for a parking spot if you decide to not be there when it opens!). The two-way access road to the resort is also a downside, as it is really crammed and cannot fit two cars comfortably (take care to not go to close to the sides, as the ditches might surprise you because they are usually covered by snow and you can easily fall in them...
Read moreIt's a small slope, however it's a good one and close to Cluj Napoca. 800m and 1400m for the 2 main ones. People generally like it and are in a good mood. The slopes sometimes develop a lot of ice, so have that on mind, as it might be dangerous in some parts.
Staff is friendly, helpful and kind.
The rule is, you have to be there early to get the card with the credits on, as the lines get really long in the weekends.
The pics are from two separate occasions under a week apart. The food at the canteen is decent and staff there is also nice. Prices a bit high, but the view is worth it! The panoramic bar has an amazing view, forever the menu has City Centre like prices as they do have to carry everything up...
Read moreNOT SNOWBOARD FRIENDLY!!! URAT, ADMINISTRARE PROASTA, NU MAI MERG. Concluzia ultimei mele vizite la Buscat este ca nu o sa mai merg nicio data. Am fost ieri, 03.01.2020, am ajuns la 9 dimineata si am apucat sa fac vreo 10 ture pana la ora 11:30 cand s-a format coada mare la telescaun si nu mai merita sa astepti. Daca asta ar fi fost singura problema nici nu ar fi fost atat de rau. In schimb administratorii "domeniului schiabil" au decis sa discrimineze practicantii sporturilor de iarna si astfel in regulamentul lor scrie ca cei cu snowboard sunt obligati sa urce pe scaun cu snowboardul in mana si ca administratia nu isi asuma raspunderea daca echipamentul este scapat din mana si accidenteaza pe cineva sau vreo masina (telescaunul trece peste partie si drumul de acces). Greseala mea a fost ca nu am citit regulamentul inainte si am ajuns la poarta de imbarcare cu placa legata de picior (cum este obligatoriu ori unde in lumea asta pentru a evita accidente) unde angajatul care supraveghea imbarcarea a inceput sa ma BRUSCHEZE, IMPINGA SI INSULTE din cauza ca nu eram cu placa in mana. Asta dupa ce am urcat de vreo 5 ori cu ea legata de picior fiindca el nu a fost atent sa imi atraga atentie cu privire la regulament. Regulamentul acesta stupid cu privire la urcarea cu placa in mana eu l-am intalnit numai la Buscat si nici unde alt undeva in lume sau in tara si explicatia lor pentru asta a fost: "sa tot oprim scaunul de cate ori cade cate un prost de asta cu snowboardul ca tine". Problema de fapt este ca administratia nu este capabila sa amenajeze o zona de debarcare corespunzatoare si astfel au adaugat regula aceasta care cauzeaza pericol din punctul meu de vedere.
P.S. poza atasata este preluata (coada la telescaun din...
