Winter vacation in a private cottage near Bukovel
We lived in the cottage "U Natalki" in 5 minutes. walk from the 1st lift. Paid 55u. e for a room with amenities on the floor. In 2006 there the prices were in 1.5r. cheaper. Prices have risen due to the lack of snow last season. This season, I think prices will be even higher. Even if there is a lot of snow. We have not yet decided where we will live. Near or elsewhere. But we will ride in Bukovel.
Last season, we bought a subscription to the lifts for the whole day until 9:00 for 60 UAH. This year we took care of it in advance and bought 5-day season tickets with a 50% discount in the summer. This season, the promotional morning discount will be only 20%, except weekends. And a full day of skiing will cost 152 UAH. Here we overtook Slovakia with Poland. And in terms of infrastructure, we are still far from them.
The big disadvantage of Bukovel is the problem with food. We had lunch at the Bugul fast food restaurant. They fed there perfectly and a very large selection of dishes - salads, first, second and dessert. But the prices! Lunch for two cost 80-100 UAH.
There are a few more Objor fast foods near the lifts. Prices there are also quite high. I'm not talking about the hut and the restaurant "Kozachok".
But despite all the disadvantages, there is no better place for skiing in Ukraine. But, I will make a reservation, for those people for whom downhill skiing is more fun than sports. We are not extreme. After the hilly slopes and ridges in Slavskoe, I felt just like in paradise here. Yes, the trails here are not long. Few blacks. But you ride all day and do not get tired.
We rode at the end of February on weekdays. The people were few. Although our vacation was expensive, we do not regret it at all.
