Pamporovo (winter 2024)
€1295 per person
Once Upon A Time... a ski resort in the midst of majestic beauty. When you think about skiing, the countries that first come to mind are usually France, Switzerland, Austria or Italy… Of course, these are great but the popularity of them can result in overbearing crowds, which often translates into “traffic jams” on the slopes and ski lifts, as well as steadily increasing prices. Lesser known by the public at large, Bulgaria is a bit of an outsider and the many advantages will most certainly persuade you to come ski with us! Welcome to Pamporovo!
Pamporovo is the third-largest ski resort in Bulgaria, situated in the heart of the Rhodope Mountains, about 250 km from Sofia. Pamporovo is located in the beautiful region of Smolyan, amongst the mountain peaks covered in majestic conifer forests. The place is dotted with quaint farming villages; all the more reason to enjoy your trip. The ski slopes are adapted for different competency levels offering different lengths and degrees of difficulty.
There are, of course, approved ski instructors available for those who’d like some lessons. For those interested in cross-country skiing, there are several routes around Mount Snejanka. Pamporovo is also home to many types of national and international ski competitions in alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, biathlons, as well as other winter sports. The resort is a firm favourite among the free ride snow boarders.
Once Upon A Time always offers a few options: you can either join one of our fabulous groups, or you can go solo, or you can choose to go with family or friends. Whichever you choose, we are here to help! We take care of everything: we’re there with you at the airport, we accompany you to the ski resort where you can relax and enjoy your snowy holiday!
If you decide to join our group, you can expect the following:
- 08:30: breakfast
- 10:00: ski, snowboard, cross country...
- 17:00: yoga class
- 18:00: relaxation (pool, steam room, sauna...)
- 20:00: dinner and other activities (bowling, long conversations by the fireside...)
Hotel Perelik
Hotel Perelik has an ideal location in the center of the ski resort of Pamporovo. It offers recently renovated rooms, a restaurant that can accommodate up to 400 people, a bowling alley, a tennis court, a children’s club,…
But the strong point of the Hotel Perelik remains its spa called Body and Soul, with a semi-Olympic swimming pool, several saunas, hammams, jacuzzis, shower rooms,… Several massage therapists offer you more than thirty treatments and massages. For more information just click above, on the “Hotel” tab.
This 2023 stay will be as exciting as last year! A magical journey through fabulous landscapes! More details in this article. All this to make your mouth water!

Practical information
As with most of our tours, Once Upon A Time offers two different options: "The Wanderers" and "As you wish".
The Wanderers are trips in groups of maximum 20 participants, which we organise from time to time, on fixed dates. We take care of everything: we collect you at the airport and you don’t have to do anything until your return! These are guaranteed to be amazing holidays because our groups are consistently fabulous! In this case, we pick you up at the airport, take you to the ski resort where we arrange everything for you: hotel, ski pass, transportation to the ski slopes...
As you wish: would you rather travel alone? As a couple? With a few close friends? That’s cool and we’re here to make it all so much easier, as well as discussing your wishes with you so that your holidays are exactly "as you wish"! All you need to do, is decide on the duration of your trip, the number of people and the program, of which we can tweak every detail together. That’s it, we do all the rest for you.
