Location
PINE PLAZA is situated in the centre of resort Pamporovo, the core of Rhodopes mountain, Bulgaria, Eastern Europe. Bulgaria is a country in South-Eastern Europe. It borders the Black Sea to the east, Greece and Turkey to the south, Serbia and the Republic of Macedonia to the west, and Romania to the north, mostly along the Danube.
THE RODOPI MOUNTAINS
The Rodopi mountains are the oldest mountains on the Balkans, a sea of dark green hills and peaks, fresh air, natural beauties and unspoiled forests and meadows, century old pine trees, crystal clear waters with plenty of trout, a harmony with mother nature! This is the place the mythical Orpheus who lived and played his magic music to people, birds and beasts. The Rodopi people are the nicest, open minded and friendly people in Bulgaria. Their bagpipes fill with sounds the vast spaces and greenery where their herds of sheep and lambs are grazing in the open.
THE RESORT
PAMPOROVO is situated in the middle of the Rodopi at 1600-1926 m above sea level and is the perfect place for skiing, hiking, trekking and visiting numerous caves (Yagodinska and Devils throat), picturesque villages (Gela, Momchilovtzi, Shiroka laka) and savouring the famous Rodopi dishes cheverme (barbequed whole lamb), patatnik (baked minced potatoes and cheese), smilyanski bob(big black beans), trout, sarmi (minced meat wrapped in cabbage or vine leaves), klin (baked flour and rice pie) and many other typical for the region meals.
Pamporovo is the pearl of Bulgarian ski resorts with 240 days of sunshine in the year. It is located in the heart of the mountain, 220km from Sofia, 85km from Plovdiv the second largest city, 15km from the regional town of Smolian and 10 km from Chepelare. Plovdiv airport operates a lot of charter flights from Europe in winter months. Snow cover is 150-200cm average and its 20km of alpine ski slopes, 6 chair lifts and over 13 drag-lifts offer unparalleled skiing opportunities with guaranteed sunshine. Not a day is missed by skiers due to piercing wind, clouds, freezing temperatures or fog. Pamporovo is also an year-round resort, offering numerous beautiful sites, majestic caves and breathtaking sceneries and rock formations (The Wonderful Bridges) within just one hour drive from the resort. Its various fauna is a desired place for hunters while fishermen enjoy trout catching in its clear waters.
THE FUTURE OF PAMPOROVO and why is the investment lucrative?
Property investments in Pamporovo will be very beneficial for owners because of the future of the resort and the area.
Recently the Bulgarian government and the municipality of Smolian have embarked on a master-plan for further development of tourism, the skiing facilities and infrastructure of the area. The project is called Perelik Sports Centre (also SuperPerelik) and, upon its completion in 5 years time, it will make the Pamporovo Perelik Smolian - Chepelare area the biggest, mega-skiing resort in the country.
The plan provides for the northern slopes of Perelik peak (2191m - the highest in The Rodopi) to be developed as a vast, super-modern skiing area with 24 new lifts and over 55 km of new skiing pistes and, most important without hotels - in order to preserve nature. The hotel base will be in Pamporovo and Smolian. A cable gondola will link Pamporovo from Snejanka peak (1926m) to Perelik and to Mechi Chal facilities above Chepelare thus creating a mega-complex with Pamporovo as its centre.
A golf course is planned in the vast green areas between Pamporovo and Smolian.
The government supports the project and undertook to modernise the Plovdiv Smolian road by building a third lane and building an airport in Smolian. The project is also supported by a major bank and is prepared for listing on the Sofia Stock Market to raise over 225 million euro (94 million in the first 3 years). The investors interest is big as tourism, and especially skiing, is the bread and butter for any economy.
Therefore, investing in Pamporovo properties now means future returns, growth in value and substantial capital gains!
