Uncleaned Roads and Heavy Snowfall Disrupt Vitosha Ski Season Opening
Hundreds of people were unable to reach Vitosha Mountain for the much-anticipated start of the ski season, as the mountain’s two main access roads were not cleared of snow
The Bulgarian Mountain Rescue Service is sounding the alarm over potential avalanche hazards in the country's mountainous regions in the coming days. Despite favorable conditions for hiking in lower elevations, the rescue service emphasizes the heightened risk in areas with significant snow cover.
Mountain rescuers caution tourists, noting that widespread overnight rain and positive temperatures have created precarious conditions. They strongly advise against hiking in regions with substantial snow accumulation due to the increased risk of avalanches.
While the warning underscores the need for caution, it assures that lift facilities in mountain resorts continue to operate according to schedule, providing a safe means for visitors to enjoy the lower-altitude areas.
