Golf Touring

A game that has been existing for at least six centuries and has almost 100 million followers all over the world, still hasn't gained popularity in Bulgaria. There are three functioning golf courses – two in Ihtiman and Sliven – both of which are property of Air Sofia, and one course in the village of Ravno Pole near Sofia, owned by the Bulgarian Golf Association. Bulgaria is expected to get a number of new golf courses in the coming few years. The construction of the new Air Sofia course in Razgrad is almost finished. Additionally, the company plans to construct one more golf course near Sofia, allowing it to run a net of four playgrounds. Two golf courses near the coastal Kavarna, one in Primorsko and one in Kutina will be finalised in the near future. Bansko winter resort and Dolna Banya will have their own courses in 2008.
