Pirin Mountains 3 Day Guided Hiking

Every mountain range in Bulgaria is different, which says a lot about how amazing the natural landscape of the country is, but the focus of this 3 day hiking trip will be the magnificent Pirin mountains.

The Pirin mountain range is a wonderful stretch of glorious natural landscape that is exceptionally lush in the summer months. Thus making it perfect for a long hiking trek.

As a result of the long walks each day, up to 8 hours of walking, and 11 kilometres of distance covered, participants of this hike should be in good physical condition. Furthermore, since there are some challenging spots during the hike, some previous hiking experience is recommended.

The list of memorable sights during this trip is long. However, a few of the best highlights include the following:

• The Bezbog lake

• The Popovo Ezero lake (the biggest lake in the range)

• The Dark lake

• The Tipitsite peaks

Along with the enjoyable hike, you will also get to enjoy a chair lift ride up to an altitude of 2,240 metres. The ride is wonderfully scenic, and because it takes place on the first day, it gives you a great introduction on the spectacular sights to come. You will also get to enjoy 2 nights in 2 different, comfortable mountains huts as well.

You really can’t go wrong with any of the amazing mountain ranges in Bulgaria. However, with the Pirin mountains, you will get to enjoy a bit more a challenge, as is the case when we make our way to the top of the biggest mountain in the entire range, Mount Vihren (2,914), which we will do on the final day of the trip. So if that sounds like the right adventure for you, send me a request, and I’ll be happy to guide you.

I can also lead you on this 4 day hike through the Rhodopes.
