How much is a season pass?

Great tips, thanks for the video, specially regarding topping up the ski pass! Regarding the gondola queue/buses, I heard the bus queue can also easily take 1.5hrs, we will be in Bansko last week of February and we're going by car from Sofia. Would you say it's better to just go by car instead of getting the queues? Any tips regarding parking, times to go up, anything helps, we're trying to be as prepared as possible to not waste our holidays in huge queues.

Hey, partner and I are students thinking of going from 25th of January for a week, wondered if you knew how busy it may be around then as heard of nightmare ques in peak times and how the slopes may be. Looks good from the video of last January ! Thanks

Nice video. Lovely street. Spoilt for choice with the number of bars and restaurants in Bansko. I have had some of the nicest meals in restaurants in this street. Please could you re-visit Pivoteka which is close to where the video finished? I am at risk of ditching skiing in February to spend afternoons enjoying the beer 🍺

Coming over for xmas this year looking forward to see it wintertime and actually explore more than what we did in 2021. We did not have much time were only there for the day. Certainly going to BG property 👍👍

@@EyalSLA early February is generally less busy but it’s always hard to say in terms of snow. Snow is not Leah and huge dumps of snow can happen at any time so I would come when it suits you. But Barry mind that weekends are always busier, so try and have, at least two short trips if possible. It’s more to look forward to and it gets you more skiing and that’s always a good thing.

@@BeckyBowers23 this year I’m expecting just the weekend before the 3rd of March to be busy rather than the 4/5 or six. So coming out from the 4th of March is a better idea than coming out at the end of February. Of course all times are good, but I’m just thinking of it being relatively quieter.

@@cameron4994 every day in every season the weather is different so generalisations are always wrong. That said typically from mid February to the first week of March you can expect probably the best snowfall. But we have had huge snowfall in mid March in many years too. And we’ve also had a huge snowfall right to the beginning of January around the fifth or six of course this is going from memory rather than any particular scientific study.
