Description

Come and join me on this fantastic snowshoe tour in one of Europe’s most fascinating landscapes, the Rila lakes in Bulgaria. At the lakes you will get to spend a whole day hiking across a splendid landscape that will leave you speechless.

The Rila Mountains is the highest mountain range in Bulgaria, as well as and the Balkans. It is without a doubt, an incredible place to enjoy winter activities. Some of those activities include climbing, ski touring, hiking and snowshoeing, which will be the focus of this trip.

While walking on the snow around the incredible lakes, you will get to gaze at Bulgaria's natural landscape from a great height. Thus giving you the perfect perspective to appreciate its beauty.

This snowshoeing trip will take place in the Rila National Park. Inside of the park's boundaries, you will see the Northwestern Rila as well as all seven of the Rila Lakes.

We will start our hiking trip from the city of Sofia, Bulgaria’s capital. After that, we will drive for 1.5 hours to Panichishte or Malyovitsa, the principal starting points of our excursion.

Another great advantage of this trip is that it not extremely challenging. Hence making it accessible to almost anybody.

Join us and get ready to leave the chaos and noise of the city behind. By traversing on snowshoes around the Rila lakes you will you and enjoy the calm, whiteness and purity of the mountains. If that sounds like the kind of adventure you want to enjoy, just send me a request.
