The Sofia/Rila Mountains region
The Rila mountains seem to be a piece of the Alps thrown into the heart of the Balkans with high peaks,glacial valleys and lakes.
Bulgaria’s largest and most famous monastery, founded in 927 AD can be found hidden in the Rila mountains.
Bulgaria's potential for hiking activities is endless and you will come across some of Europe's finest highland scenery in the Rila when walking.Hundreds of trails and a variety of routes are on offer to all levels of walkers. Rich wildlife, flora and fauna protected in 3 national and 11 nature parks, and numerous reserves all make up the mountainous regions of Bulgeria.
In summer Borovets, which is surrounded by pine forests, makes an excellent centre for mountain walking and hiking, mountain biking and horse riding.
Borovets area
Borovets is set in the Rila Mountains and is Bulgaria's premier winter holiday resort, based at the foot of Mt Mousala (2950m) which is the highest peak on the Balkan Peninsula, snow cover is extremely good between mid December and as far as the end of April.
As well as providing opportunities for walking, mountain biking, fishing and hunting in the summer, it is also an excellent base for exploring the surrounding areas.
Borovets caters for all levels of skiing, and is especially renowned for those learning to ski and board. There are a good selection of runs to test all abilities, and we have the added bonus of being able to cater for 'extreme' parties, involving snow cat treks, night skiing with head lamps and ski-do skiing!! You won’t find this anywhere else.
This Chalet is owned by very keen skiers, and is managed by the resorts top Snowboarding Instructor, so if we cant cater for what you want no one will be able too! We aim to please, so any special requests are always welcome, just give us a little warning for the more obscure ones!
