Now im retired (sort of ) can visit interesting places. Has anyone got any guidebooks or maps to Bulgaria – around Bansko and the Pirin Mountains and also the Zillertal/ Mayrhofen area. Happy to beg, borrow or buy.
Now packing to take a walking group to Cuba

There are lots of maps for Bulgaria now.
See http://www.mapsofbalkan.com/shop/index.php/cPath/22_23 for 56 maps
The main series is Domino. See eg http://www.stanfords.co.uk/Bulgaria-Domino-Hiking-Maps_SI00001682
There is also a series from Kartografija, http://www.cartographia-bg.net, or available from maps of Balkans above
For guidebooks
Walking in Bulgaria’s national parks, Julian Perry, Cicerone covers Rila Pirin Stara Planina
The mountains of Bulgaria,. Julian Perry, Cordee (out of print I think)
Kom-Emine, path along the main Stara Planina mountain ridge, http://www.oilaripi.com

Climbing guides to a couple of areas in Bulgaria, Slovenia & Croatia you’d be welcome to borrow. Check out https://rockaroundtheworld.co.uk/category/eastern-europe/ for more inspiration 🙂
