This winter season, the Borovets resort in Rila is overflowing with tourists. There are good conditions for skiing and the weather is also good for mountain walks.
The ski resort of Pamporovo in the Rhodopes, which this month will host events of the Snowboard Alpine World Cup for the first time in its history, has already welcomed its first guests - fans of ski and tourism, of whom the youngest are the most passionate.
