It can safely be asserted that Bulgaria is a mountainous country.
Approximately half of its territory is occupied by mountainous
formations various in their area, height, nature and origin. All of
them are a ring of the powerful range of the Alpine - Himalayan Massif
comprising a multitude of mountainous systems on the two continents -
Europe and Asia.
The mountains in Bulgaria are extremely diverse in kind. If they lack something, it is solely the “cosmic” altitudes and the everlasting snow and ice. Small and big, barren and forested, rounded and steep, low and high, rocky and openly Alpine all of them are accessible during the four seasons of the year and they provide for limitless opportunities for recreation, sports and tourism.
Ski-tourism grows more and more popular and inspires many fans of the mountain and skiing. Most attractive opportunities in this respect are offered by the high Rila and Pirin Mountains. The long routs and the memorable coasting down the Alpine slopes covered with untrodden snow evoke deep emotions and make one feel a pioneer. The northern slopes of Stara Planina have a sufficient snow cover all the year round, too. Vitosha and Osogovo Mountains are most suitable for one- and two-day hiking tours, as well as for training. The graduate changes of relief, smooth hill shapes, the lack of great variations in altitude, as well as the thick snow cover throughout the year make the Southern Rhodopes most attractive for skiing tours with narrow skis (for ski-running). Ski-mountaineering is an extreme of ski-tourism and is more and more widely practised. The Alpine relief of Rila and Pirin makes them real “stadiums” for its fans. The period from February to April is most favourable for ski-tourism and ski-mountaineering. Bansko, Borovets and Pamporovo are the most popular ski resorts in Bulgaria.
