  Located under Balkans' highest peak of Mussala (2925m), Borovets has a history since the end of 19th century when it become then Bulgarian Prince's first hunting residence.

  Ten kilometres away from the town of Samokov (situated at 73km from Sofia and 123km from Plovdiv), meandering through fabulously snow-lighted slopes you arrive in the village of Govedartsi.

  Any zealous skier would envy the availability of a ski track in a ten-minute walk away from the last house there.
