For the first time in the modern history of Bansko all official events for the season start were held at 2600 m above sea level - at the top of the ski zone! As of December 13th, 2025 the snow cover in Bulgaria's Best Ski Resort (WSA) is between 70 cm at Plato and 140 cm at Todorka Peak. 

Giorgio Rocca and Mark Girardelli were the two ski legends who led the teams of “Get in the Team of the Champ". 30 participants competed in slalom, with Anton Koyuv from team “Girardelli” being fastest among them with 18:07, which ensured him the first prize in the competition - a seasonal lift pass for Bansko!

The Executive Director of Ulen AD Mrs. Maya Hristoskova presented the season pass to Anton Koyuv, 
who finished first in "Get in the Team of the Champ" with 18:07.

The “Treasure Hunters” game attracted hundreds of enthusiasts who digged the snow for one of the many prizes provided by Ulen, Balkan Holidays, Kempinski Grand Arena Bansko, 4 Points by Sheraton, Fibank and other sponsors and friends of Bansko. 42 boxes with the prizes were buried in the snow at 2600 m above sea level. They contained an ECONIC One electric bike; another seasonal lift pass for Bansko; 3 tablets provided by A1; dinner at the elite restaurant Come Prima; 5 silver coins from Fibank; overnight stays at the Kempinski Grand Arena Bansko, 4 Points by Sheraton, and Mura hotels; unique branded skis from Coca Cola; backpacks; helmets and many other items and experiences.

The grand prize in “Treasure Hunters” - an ECONIC One e-bike went to Prolet Borisova. 

At the top of the ski area, the hosts had provided hot tea and mulled wine for the guests, who, in addition to the games, also took part in the first descents of this season on Plato and Banderitsa 2! 
“The snowcat drivers of Ulen have worked hard to prepare the slopes in the high part of the ski area for the guests of Bansko. We are expecting suitable weather conditions so that we can turn on the modern technological snow system to cover the terrain on the other slopes. As you know, low temperatures and low humidity are required for this purpose!” said Ivan Obreykov, Marketing Director of Ulen AD.
