In the Bulgarian mountains, the conditions for tourism are good, Tervel Totev, on duty at the Mountain Rescue Service, told BTA. 

However, he warned that due to upcoming warming, the avalanche danger will increase. For this reason, it is good that people do not walk on slopes.

At Borovets resort (Rila Mountain), the snow cover is 110 cm, on Mount Todorka (Pirin Mountain) - 105 cm, on Aleko Peak (Vitosha Mountain) - 60 cm, according to the data of the Mountain Rescue Service.
