During this year about 25 000 levs were allocated for the repairs of the lifts in the ski resort. There are 14 facilities for ski and snowboard in the Pamporovo. The fall repairs and prophylaxis has already finished for this year and the ski resort is ready to welcome the first skiers and tourists.

Zahari Shopov explained that the problems of the lift facilities come from the lightning storms which are often rage in Pamporovo. The Snezhanka tower itself draws big current of electricity which goes into the cable lines and then part of the electronics stop working. We react immediately by changing the broken parts.

The crew working on the cable lines in Pamporovo is one of the most experienced in Bulgaria and we put efforts in order to keep the human resources that we have.

Mainly during the repairs and the maintenance of the cable lines during this year, the cable for the six seats cable cart from Stoykite to Snezhanka was shortened. More and more often the Bulgarian tourists are using the lift facilities. 11 600 people per hour is the capacity of the cable carts in the Bulgarian ski resort Pamporovo.
