Itinerary description
|
Second and last stage of this journey through the Rila National Park.
This stage landscape has nothing to do with yesterday.
The first 5 km are in ascent by path in rocky terrain. When we start the descent on the other slope, the landscape changes pastures and alpine meadows, later we will enter a dense forest of beech, fir, white fir, larch, oak etc.
A magnificent mixed forest, of the best I've seen.
We arrive at the Rila Monastery that is located inside this fantastic forest, the monastery itself deserves the effort of getting here.
It is highly recommended to visit the monastery without hurry, it will surprise you pleasantly.
