What to do in Borovets?

Borovets is a beautiful ski location in the winter and an excellent hiking destination in the summer. Skiers and snowboarders will enjoy the various pistes, and for extra excitement, you can grab a night pass, and hit the slopes after dark. Borovets is a good place to try out snowmobiling or feel like a true Bulgarian and take a dip in the local Hot Springs. For a magical Christmas experience why not book a horseback riding tour through the snowy forests, or for the best views of the landscape try a tandem paraglide. Most hotels boast a sauna and steam room which is the perfect start (or finish) to a day on the slopes.

The summer months are less busy and great for nature enthusiasts; hiking is especially prevalent in the area. Hike to Musaka Peak, the highest mountain on the Balkan Peninsula or see the waterfalls and Palace at Tsarska Bistritsa (located above Borovet in Rila). There are twenty kilometres of tracks to enjoy at the Borovets mountain bike park, and there is also a rock climbing and mountaineering school in Borovets (opened by two of the most famous rock climbers in Bulgaria).

Visit the Ottoman mosque and fountain in the nearby town of Samokov; just a few minutes away and considerably cheaper than the resort of Borovets. Only fifteen minutes from Borovet is the town of Belchin which is home to a fifteenth-century historic site Tsari Mali Grand nicknamed “the little King’s city”.

Types of HolidayTaxis transfer vehicles
March 31, 2023

At HolidayTaxis, we recognize that every traveler is different and may have their own preferences and requirements for their airport transfers. To accommodate this, we offer a diverse range of transfer vehicles for our customers to choose from, each with its own set of benefits and advantages.

For example, if you're traveling in a large group, our minibus or shared airport shuttle transfers might be the best option for you, as they can comfortably accommodate a larger number of passengers and their luggage. On the other hand, if you're traveling with just one or two companions, a private car may be more suitable for you as they offer a more intimate and personalised experience.
