Rent a first-season Burton and get straight to Borovets’ varied slopes without the hassle. This premium hire pack includes fitting, helmet and free storage—key details to help you maximize your time on Rila’s snow.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The first light on Rila’s ridgelines turns the snow a hard, clean silver; you unclip your bindings in the depot, strap into a first-season Burton board and feel the slope’s intent beneath your feet. Borovets is compact — one lift line away from the rental shop — and the air carries the spruce-scent of high-altitude forests and the occasional chatter of other riders trading line tips.

History
Borovets developed as a national winter resort in the 20th century; the slopes sit within Rila, a massif shaped by glaciation and centuries of mountain livelihoods.
