The ski resort of Semkovo lies 17km to the north of the town of Belitsa. The complex is located to the south of the main ridge of the Rila mountain and is built over spacious meadows surrounded by pine forests.

The complex has several hotels, holiday houses and villas, including the Rila hotel, the Bor hotel, the Semkovo hut, etc. Semkovo offers 6 ski runs of a total length of 4km, serviced by 8 ski lifts.
