Rila Mountains
The Rila mountain range is one of the tallest mountain ranges in Europe, and the tallest in the Balkan states. Most of it is part of Bulgaria’s Rila National Park.
Vitosha Mountain
Vitosha Mountain, found near the capital city of Sofia, is an extremely popular tourist spot, thanks to the many convenient paths one can take to get there. The mountain is full of hiking trails, mountain-climbing locations and ski slopes. The mountain is regarded as one of the national symbols of Bulgaria.
Spring in the Rila Mountains
After winter comes spring, covering the mountainside with a variety of eye-dazzling flowers.
Belogradchik Fortress
Located near a town with the same name, this ancient structure is made of thick walls, built over several centuries near steep cliffs.
Seven of the Rila Lakes
The Rila mountain range is home to 120 charming little lakes created by the icebergs that covered the area during the ice age. These little lakes turned this mountain range into one of the most popular tourist attractions in the country.
Concetto Range in the Pirin Mountains
Concetto (meaning “Little Horse”) range, got its unique name due to the tendency of inexperienced climbers to sit on its edge, like you’d sit on a horse, and make their way very slowly across its length.
