Ski and snowboard guide to Bulgaria - Where to go, what to do and how to save
This booklet is the first “user generated” guide for skiing and snowboarding around Bulgaria. It will be constantly updated throughout the year by skiers and riders for skiers and riders. The aim of this guide is not to educate you about the cultural history of Bulgaria or tell you when the museums are open.
Whether you are planning to visit a city, a region or a country, DK's foolproof 'Eyewitness' approach makes learning about a place a pleasure in itself. All the traditional guidebook subject matter is covered-descriptions of sights, opening times, hotels, restaurants, shopping, entertainment, phrase books etc- but, with the help of specially commissioned illustrations and maps, DK makes essential information easy to access and quick to absorb.
