Enjoy a full-day guided trek to the Rila Mountains and explore the most important area in the mountains – The Seven Rila Lakes and the UNESCO World Heritage Rila Monastery.
Begin with a transfer to Rila, followed by a brief cable car ride to the Seven Rila Lakes Cirque. Located between 2100 and 2500m above sea level, you'll see the glacier lakes with names fitting their shapes, like Babreka (the Kidney), Okoto (the Eye), and Salzata (the Teardrop). Walk the whole trek around all lakes, or make a shorter stroll and skip the two highest ones.
Next, admire the impressive Rila Monastery with architecture and frescoes that present the apogee of Bulgarian Renaissance art. On a 1-hour guided tour of the inner yard and the Monastery museum, you'll learn the most fascinating facts and stories about the biggest Bulgarian monastery complex. Then return to the starting point of your tour.
