Did you know that Bulgaria was such a mountainous country? We didn’t. From the Pirin National Park to the Seven Lakes of Rila, Vitosha mountain, the Balkan mountain range (Stara Planina), we got to discover Bulgaria from high.
In the South of the country, we followed the E4 hiking path from the Greek border to Sofia. There we finally met Petar! We headed towards Serbia before coming back to discover one of the highlights of the whole trip: the rocks of Belogradchik. From there, we started to hike on the Kom Emine on the Balkan mountain. We reached its top on the Botev peak and celebrated New Year’s Eve nearby in a mountain shelter. We got amazed by the strong mountain and outdoor culture here in Bulgaria!
We are now near Turkey, ready to cross the last border of this adventure!
