The Beauty of the Countryside and a Homemade Lunch

If you have a love for the countryside, consider spending a day in the heart of the Middle Mountain Range, just 45 minutes away from Sofia’s city center. Walk along the nature and try a delicious homemade lunch in a rural house!

Reconnect with Nature: First, enjoy a leisurely stroll through the pine forest. The scenic path leads to a viewpoint where you can admire five distinct mountains, including the tallest on the peninsula, as well as a Roman monument dating back to the 4th century AD.

Explore Historical Significance: Walk along the route taken by troops during Bulgaria’s third most significant battle for liberation in 1877, a military achievement still studied in academies around the world.

Savor a Traditional Meal: Visit an authentic rural house and delight in a homemade three-course lunch prepared by “Mama” mother Tanya, featuring fresh local products sourced straight from the farm. The lunch also includes locally made “rakia” and wine.

Horse Riding Experience: Spend the afternoon at a nearby horse ranch where you can hone your riding skills under the guidance of friendly professionals.
