Description
Keep in mind that the blue ski slope is not working most of the time. In the early winter (before heavy snow falls) there are rocks in the last part of the this route and it can't be used - you should use the green ski slope to the left.
Keep in mind to sidestep the hole (keep right) just before the down station of the Cherni vrah ski lift (when you start your descent from Cherni vrah).
More information on the track is available here: https://www.komoot.com/tour/27763152/zoom Map of the ski slopes in Vitosha: https://vitoshaski.com/lifts/map (keep in mind that most of them are not working)
Difficulty
Easy
Wide gentle slopes at around 20 degrees or less.
Low Exposure (E1)
Exposure is limited to that of the slope itself. Getting hurt is still likely if the slope is steep and/or the snow is hard.
Remoteness
Close to help in case of emergency.
