From today, winter sports lovers will be able to practice night skiing in Bulgaria's Borovets resort in Rila Mountain. At their disposal will be ten lighted tracks of different levels of difficulty – green, red, black, a sledding area with a total length of over 6 km, three ski tows and a six-seater ropeway. 

The facilities will be available on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 6.30 pm to 10 pm.

"We were waiting for the temperature to drop in order to open our favourite night ride, which will operate in this mode until mid-February," said marketing manager Maria Sheynova. 

At the moment there are tourists in the resort from the Balkan countries of Serbia, North Macedonia, Romania, as well as from Great Britain.
