Photo report from Vitosha, 14 Jan 2003
Vitosha got much snow during last days. I took the gondola from the bottom station of the mountain, only 10 km from the city centre of Sofia. As most people know Vitosha is mainly visited during the weekends by the local people who live in the capital. Even if it was Monday, the slopes were full of skiers and boarders. The snow was excellent! The sun was shining and the temperature was only few degrees below 0. Big groups of children were taking lessons, and adults skiers and boarders were enjoying the snow and the sun. There were nice views from the mountain to the busy city below.

Sent on 08 October 2011The first time I came for ski holiday was in 1975 with Christmas.In that time Holland International was the touroperator. We had a fantastic time in Stastlivetza and the skiing was great. Beautifull natur! That the lifts were oldfashied was a pity but all the things around, the people ski instructors we really made friends. From that time on we came every year 1 or 2 times to Vitosha until 1980. We like to go very much to go to Vitosha again but I heard Stastlivetza is not operabel anymore.I can not understand that such a nice hotel at such a beautifull place a not modernizing to the level . -

Sent on 02 January 2005Having visited Vitosha yesterday by gondola from the main station, my first impression is that it is not geared at all for the foreign tourist yet. Although it was possible to find friendly english speaking staff (all the people we came across were friendly)it was impossible for us to make any sense of the maps of the various pistes. In fact the 'you are here' marker on the map did not exist. Rubbed off?? Who knows! We had no idea where we were or where to go. Which runs were which etc. Consequently we chose to stay at the top station and just have a look around before making our descent. Must say though it looks a great place if you know your way around. We are currently living in Sofia and hope to return for a session with an English speaking guide sometime this week. We were told that it was impossible to find anyone on 1st Jan because they were all suffering from the aftermath of the night before. Weren't we all! Great to have this website. Regards.
