Mountain tours
Koprivshtitsa has been preserved as an open-air museum of the Bulgarian National Revival.
Musala (Bulgarian: Мусала) is the highest peak in Bulgaria and the entire Balkan Peninsula, standing at 2,925 m (9,596 ft).
Take a slow wander through the Rodopi Mountains, home to Bulgaria's most isolated and ethnically diverse communities. The landscape takes in spectacular gorges and steep rocky slopes which open onto tiered fields and pine forests.
The routes pass through the biggest Bulgarian Massifs – the Rila, Pirin and Rhodopi Mountains and the Mountain chain – Stara planina (Old Mountain). The routes are presented in a low grade of difficulty for beginners, which can be worked out for advanced (tourists in a good and active fitness), too.
Varvara is a tiny fishing community 82km (51mi) south of Burgas. In winter it's pin-quiet, but the village is transformed each summer when artists and alternative lifestylers from Sofia camp on the fields above the beach.
