The winter season in Bansko starts earlier this year. The ski area opens on December 6, 2024. All slopes will be open except for Chalin Valog and the ski road to Bansko. The runs are in excellent condition, it was reported. Until December 19, ski pass prices will be the same as those in the previous season. 

The official opening of the season in Bansko will be on December 14 with the participation of Austrian legend in alpine skiing Mihael Walchhofer and five-time World Cup overall champion Marc Girardelli. The two stars will face each other in the game "Join the Champion's Team", which guarantees attractive prizes for registered skiers.
