Why it might suit you:

  • Very budget-friendly.
  • Good beginner/intermediate terrain.
  • Accommodation, lift passes, and food are typically cheaper than in Western Europe.

Potential drawbacks:

  • Smaller ski area compared to the Alps.
  • Sometimes can have heavy weekend/holiday crowds.
  • Travel from Portugal can be less straightforward (you’d likely fly via Sofia, then bus/transfer).
