The winter season and the new realities in the development of tourism in Bansko<\/h2>\n

The 2022\/2023 season has challenged traditional methods of managing ski resorts.

World Cup success<\/h3>\n

The household of FIS Snowboard World Cup<\/strong> was a real feat that solidified the prestigious tourism development in Bansko<\/strong> in front of the eyes of the world sports community. While many Alpine resorts were closing slopes, the teams in Bansko prepared a perfect course, proving that good organization is stronger than the vagaries of nature.<\/p>\n
