Relaxation away from the crowds in the summer resorts, walks in the mountains, opportunities for trekking on foot or with electric bicycles - all this awaits tourists as of today in Bansko.

The resort in the Pirin Mountains will surprise its guests in the summer with many sports attractions for young and old. A small entertainment complex with a climbing tower, a shooting range, a soccer field with small holes, mini golf, human jugs and a 400-meter water slide is located on the Bunderishka meadow.

In July, there will be screenings of Bulgarian films under the open sky, a festival of school orchestras, a presentation of the best Bulgarian competitors from the extreme enduro championship.

The package prices for one day for an adult are 90 BGN (46 euro) and for children from 8 to 12 years – 55 BGN (28 euro). They include a two-way cable car ticket, a one-time descent on a summer slide and five descents with tubes in a chute.
