Mountain

Rodopi Mountain

The Wonder Bridges

The Wonder Bridges (Chudnite Mostove) are one of Bulgaria’s most extraordinary natural formations. They are located in the Rhodopes at a height of 1000 miles above sea level. These bridges are in fact colossal marble arches connecting the two banks of the river Dalbok Dol.

Snezhanka (meaning Snow White in English) is a cave in the Rodopi mountains, situated about 3 miles away from the town of Peshetra. The cave was discovered in 1961 by a group of mountaineers who spent about 10 hours inside it just admiring its beauty.

Vitosha mountain

Vitosha is the most visited Bulgarian mountain. It rises immediately above Sofia and is one of the symbols of our capital city. Few are the big cities in the world, and capitals are even fewer, that possess such a natural advantage. Vitosha Mountain is the most significant part of the Plana-Zavala Mountain System. With its highest peak - Mt. Cherni Vrah (The Black Peak) (2290 m) it occupies the fourth place among Bulgarian mountains.

One of Vitosha’s famous sights is “Zlatnite mostove” (The Golden Bridges). This is a natural formation also known as a stone river, or stone run. The formation is located at approximately 4593 ft above sea level.

Rila mountain

The Rila Mountain is situated in the southwestern part of Bulgaria. To the south it is divided from the Pirin Mountain through the picturesque saddle “Predela”, to the north it is connected with Verila Mountain with the Klisura saddle. To the east the Rila Mountain reaches the valley of the Struma River and to the northeast it reaches the beautiful valley of the Maritsa river.

The Seven Rila Lakes (Sedemte Rilski Ezera) is undoubtedly one of the most breath-taking sights a tourist could ever see in their lifetime. This group of lakes is of glacial origin and it is the most visited one in Bulgaria. The lakes are located in Rila Mountain, at about 6900-8200 ft above sea level and are part of Bulgaria’s 100 Tourist Sites.

Pirin Mountain

Pirin is the most beautiful and most Alpine type of mountain in Bulgaria. It is the second highest after the Rila mountain (in Bulgaria) and third in the Balkan Peninsula (after Olympus of Greece – Mt. Mitika, 2917 metres). Pirin is situated in the south-western part of the country and has covered the south-western corner of the Rila-Rhodope mountain massif. It is rather extended in shape to the north-west and south-east and is flanked by the rivers Struma and Mesta.

The winter resort is located just above the colourful town of Bansko 12 km into the picturesque Pirin Mountain.
