Touring ski hire in Borovets

Bulgaria’s oldest winter resort – Borovets offers perfect conditions for ski touring. That exciting snow activity has become widely known during the past years as it allows you to ski both on and off-piste and makes you independent from using the ski lifts. What makes the touring skis unique is that with them you can both ski downhill and go… uphill! Skiing downhill is similar to alpine skiing, and special ‘skins’ that prevent you from sliding backwards are attached to the bottom of the ski for climbing.

Skiing downhill with touring skis is similar to alpine skiing while the climbing technique is more challenging to master and demands excellent physical condition.

The most exciting part when you do ski touring is in finding the best snow and the most rewarding descents. Although it is not mainstream, ski touring is possible everywhere with enough snow. Depending on your preference, you could day tour or spend the night at any of the high mountain huts in the area of Borovets.
