Sofia: Small group to Seven Rila Lakes and Skakavitsa waterfall
This is a magical adventure into the largest National Park in Bulgaria. The Seven Rila Lakes district is one of the most popular attractions in Bulgaria. During the walk we will enjoy magnificent panoramas and the stunning lakes start to appear one after another. Our goal is to reach the Lakes peak from where we could enjoy all 7 glacial lakes in a clear day – it is a wonderful 360 ⁰ panorama. On the way back we could stop at one of the mountain huts for optional lunch or just to relax and have a drink before catching the lift down. Later our hike continues to the highest waterfall in Rila – Skakavitsa. During the different seasons the walk looks completely different – in winter it is completely frozen, in spring it is a heaven for mountain flowers. During the winter season special equipment needed (snowshoes and hiking poles). We provide the equipment if necessary.
