Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Was in Pamps Feb 2007 and the snow was awful. My partner and myself are new to skiing so it wasnt to bad for us.

Now the hard part, were working our nuts off(well I am, shes not got nuts) to take 3 kids away. What was the snow like in Bansko on 23 Feb last year?

Anyone help?

Next year is what counts. History is no guarantee of future patterns.

In Feb half-term 2006 it was good.

Best to book late I think 'cos no one anywhere can predict the weather much beyond 5 days. They may have a rough idea that it will precipitate but a few degrees either way can change snow to rain, which will wash existing snow away.

This forum is hectic with weather and snow reports in January, so keep watching.

Bansko was better than a lot of alpine resorts in Feb last year. However, the ski road that goes right back down to resort level was only open sporadically. This shouldn't be a problem if temperatures are high enough as it is well covered by snow making.

By the way Bansko is a great place for good quality, affordable tuition. Book as many lessons as you can fit in and you'll see a great improvement in your skiing. My skiing was hugely improved after 3 days of one-to-one tuition in Bansko.

Don't forget to try the Mehanas, the food is amazing. Very Happy

Hi MFC,

I'm from Bulgaria and think that late Feb is the perfect time to go in Bansko. It will be VERY unusual if there is no enough snow at this time of the winter.

Basically there are a lot of snowmaking machines which can produce snow, in case of snowless winter.

vgsbs, Went to Bansko a couple of years back and really enjoyed it. Gondola and lifts on top were fine with very few queues and uncrowded slopes. Snow was great (in Feb) that year. We were thinking of going back this coming year but some research has highlighted that over building of apartments and hotels on a massive scale has caused horrendous crowds on the slopes and the queues that go with it. Can you confirm how bad it is out there because as far as value for money was concerned I think the resort was hard to beat?

Mogs, I think you should be OK if you avoid half-term. We've been a few times and never seen a queue/crowd.

Mogs, you are right - there are plenty of new hotels in Bansko. The resort is growing very fast. It was not crowded this winter - maybe a little more people during weekends and holidays, when people from Sofia and Greece are coming, but during the week days it was generaly OK. I can just hope that this winter there will be no such a big difference than the previous one. Puzzled

Thanks for the replies. I hope what you say is correct. I loved the resort and the locals were really friendly. It would be a shame for them if the resort was spoilt to the extent that I have heard Sad In reply to the same question on another form I was told that 'development of new 30-50 km. ski runs is imminent' so that may go some way to easing any likely queues
