Panoramic Peaks, Bear Sanctuary & Folklore Evening
An exhilarating ride to a panoramic viewpoint with sweeping vistas of majestic peaks, the ruins of a mysterious ancient settlement where history seems to come alive among the stones, two mountain lakes, a sparkling waterfall, and cool crystal rivers.
We then head towards Rila National Park. First stop — the Bear Sanctuary, a unique place where brown bears, once rescued from captivity, now live in their natural habitat.
Lunch at a trout farm, where everyone can catch their own trout, freshly prepared on the spot. In the evening, a true Bulgarian celebration awaits: dinner with a folklore programme, live music, traditional dancing, and local dishes.

Rhodope Mountains
