Borovets began as a royal hunting retreat and development accelerated in the 20th century into Bulgaria’s oldest winter resort; the nearby Rila range contains Musala, the highest peak on the Balkan Peninsula.
Conservation
Ski infrastructure can fragment alpine habitats—stay on marked pistes, use depot storage instead of plastic bags, and choose local rental services to reduce gear waste.
Reserve your spot on the Premium ski hire today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
