Weed is the most commonly consumed illegal drug in Bansko; an estimated 10% of young adults have tried the plant. However, the country has strict drug laws that consider cannabis to have a “high degree of risk for the public health due to the harmful effect from its abuse”.

Possible Penalties:

Cannabis is considered a List 1, “high-risk drug” in Bulgaria. Possession of any amount is illegal. Authorities treat small amounts—like a single joint—as a minor offense and typically issue a fine. Consuming weed in Bansko is an administrative offense, subject to a fine.
Possession of large amounts is a criminal offense that can incur one to six years in jail. While trafficking cannabis means you can face two to eight years in jail. Authorities don’t use a set quantity to define a ‘large amount’—they determine it based on the street value of the cannabis you’re carrying.

How and Where to Get Weed in Bansko:

Don’t expect to easily find weed when you visit Bansko. Although cannabis consumption is now usual for younger generation, it’s not as popular or prevalent as other vices like Vape, cigarettes and alcohol. The strict laws against cannabis mean you can face jail time for possessing even a few grams. But some people managed to score weed in Bansko; Just ask a random dude that looks like a stoner, if they’ve got weed on them. They might try to inflate the price if they think you’re clueless when it comes to pricing so be aware of that.

Eur15/gram would be a great price for weed here but it can sometimes go as high as Eur20/gram, depending on the grade.
That said, the strains you find in Bansko aren’t nearly as good as other strains that can be found in other countries because there aren’t any exotics. Hash is a lot more common than weed so you might have to settle for that.
