Tragedy: 21-Year-Old Skier Dies After Accident in Chepelare
A tragic incident has occurred in Chepelare, Bulgaria, where a 21-year-old skier lost his life after a fatal accident on an advanced track
Bulgaria’s top winter resorts of Pamporovo and Chepelare are going to enter the New Year with significantly lower reservations compared to previous seasons.
Tour operators and hotel owners, cited by the Bulgarian news agency BGNES, say the number of tourists is down 50% while accommodation prices have been reduced by 20%.
Pamporovo still has vacancies for the New Year’s Eve where the prices for two nights with dinner, including the New Year’s Eve dinner, range between BGN 600 and 800, depending on the hotel’s category.
Double rooms sell for BNG 70-80 while apartments and VIP rooms range between BGN 120 and 140. Breakfast is not included in the price. Ski lockers cost BGN 50 a day.
The ski tracks in Pamporovo are open and maintained with artificial snow. The weather service, however, is advising wannabe tourists and skiers Sunday to cancel plans over thick fog and torrential rains in the mountains.
