Bansko

Bulgaria's largest ski resort in the Balkans, Bansko sits beneath the Pirin Mountains in the southwest of the country and draws winter and summer visitors alike. The modest town has a café and restaurant scene well above its size, and has become a known base for digital nomads drawn by its affordability. The wider region is ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
