Pamporovo - The sunniest winter resort

The pearl of the Bulgarian mountain resorts, Pamporovo is a ski-centre for all levels of skiers. Pamporovo has excellent ski runs including a racing run for giant slalom as well as a first class well developed lift system. Pamporovo has a mild but very snowy winter. The number of sunny days during the ski season from December to May averages 120 days so visitors should bring their sun screen.
Pamporovo is located at an altitude of 1650 m above sea level amidst picturesque valleys and peaks of the Rhodopa Mountains, where according to the legend, Orpheus, the mythical singer, once lived.

The healthy year-round climate and non polluted land might be the reason for what appears to be a genetic miracle- Nearly all of Bulgaria's centenarians are found in this district.

The Rhodopa region is well known for its unique folklore traditions. A famous Phodopa folk song was copied onto a golden record and launched in a space satellite as a message to life in Cosmos.
