Why Borovets?

Borovets is one of the oldest leisure area in Bulgaria dating back 70 years when the royal family and the upper middle class started building there weekend residences and chalets. Many of these can still be seen in the resort including the king's hunting and mountain residence. Located 1 hour drive from Sofia International Airport Borovets lies on the northern slopes of the Rila Mountains, 70km from the nation's capital and at the foot of the Mousala peak (2925m), the highest on the Balkan Peninsula.

Since 2004 when the idea of Super Borovets was first launched, the resort has been attracting millions of Euros of government investment in its bid to host the 2014 winter Olympics. To achieve this goal, new ski, snowboard and toboggan runs are to be built. Additional cable gondolas are planned to connect Borovets to Samokov, Beli Iskar and Dolna Bania.

The much-anticipated expansion of Bulgarian ski resort Borovets, dubbed the Super Borovets project is underway  with the ground-breaking ceremony for a lift connecting the city of Samokov with the Markudjik ski runs held today.

The resort will be developed into a destination primarily targeting Bulgarian year-round holiday-makers, said the company official.

According to the expansion blueprint, construction density will be 20 per cent. The new hotels that will be added will have built-up area of 100 000 sq m. The total area of the planned vacation homes is around 400 000 sq m or no more than 4000 units.

The first of the project's two development phases should be completed within two years at a cost of around 650 million euro. A substantial portion of the investment resource will be borrowed.

The first phase will focus on the development of infrastructure like skiing facilities, ski runs and buildings at lower altitude. Work on adding a total of 40 km of new ski runs will begin in March-April 2008.

The second phase of the project, including the construction of the higher-altitude hotels, should be concluded by 2012.

The developers will invite an international competition to pick a project manager. The main building contractor for the resort expansion is local construction company Glavbolgarstroy which owns a 8% stake in the project.

Another 1,000 hotel beds are planned for the upper Borovets.

Upon completion, the supersized resort will have 25,000 beds and 100 km of ski runs.

The investors expected to inject at least 350 mln euro in the Super Borovets project.
