Ski resorts in Europe do not have a single pricing policy, so everyone can find a vacation that suits their budget. However, during peak seasons, most resorts significantly increase prices for hotels and restaurants, as well as for lift tickets for snowboarding and skiing.


So, which ski resorts have the lowest prices and where to spend your winter vacation this year, we will tell you in the article below.


Bulgaria: Bansko and Borovets


These are two ski resorts in Bulgaria where you can relax on a budget even during the peak season (December through April). Ski passes for a week here will cost about 200 euros. And the cost of budget accommodation for a week is from 300 to 600 euros (with meals).



Bansko ski resort 


Both resorts are located at an altitude of about 2500 thousand meters above sea level and have good infrastructure, many trails of different difficulty levels and offer many additional entertainment options. At the same time, Bansko is a relatively new resort that has managed to win over winter vacationers from all over the world.


Slovakia: Jasna (Jasná Nízke Tatry)


Jasna is the largest ski resort in Slovakia, located at an altitude of just over 2000 meters above sea level. It is rightfully called one of the best in Eastern Europe, but the prices here remain affordable. Here you can buy both very budget ski-passes for ~150 euros per week and more expensive ones - from 270 euros, which include free skiing at night. The season here lasts from December to April, and both beginners and professionals can go skiing, as the resort offers trails of different difficulty levels. Accommodation, compared to the resorts of Bulgaria, will cost tourists a little more, on average - 100 euros per night in a double room.

Slovenia: Krvavec and Vogelj


These are two high-altitude complexes that will enchant you with a special atmosphere, because they are quite small but located in an incredibly picturesque place. At the same time, Vogelj is home to the longest ski run in Slovenia - the Žagarje Hollow. The cost of ski-passes for a week here starts from 180 euros, and accommodation from 75 euros per day.



Krvavec Ski Resort 


In addition, there are many tourist locations near these two resorts that are worth visiting, especially in winter.


If you are planning to go on a winter vacation to a ski resort, don't forget to take care of the appropriate insurance in advance. After all, skiing and snowboarding carry potential risks that can not only ruin your vacation, but also hit your health and wallet. You can take out an insurance policy for skiing and snowboarding on our website. Read more about the benefits of specialized insurance and how it differs from ordinary travel insurance here.


We remind you! A tourist tax will be introduced in many popular tourist destinations in Europe. Read about the amounts involved and where you will have to pay for entry in January 2024 in our previous article.
