Top Trekking Hiking in Bulgaria

I suggest starting the hike around 8 AM to avoid the crowds and enjoy the fresh morning air. Plus, you'll have more chances for that killer sunrise photo!

If you're planning to stay overnight, look for accommodations in nearby towns instead of on the trail. You'll save some serious money, and it's fun to explore local spots!

I think downloading offline maps or a trail app can save you some hassle. The signage can be a bit tricky in some spots, and having GPS helps keep you on track.

My advice is to pack some snacks and water, because prices at the cafes can be a bit steep. I learned the hard way!

if you're into photography, try to hike up early, around 7 am. the sunrise shots were incredible and the trails were much less crowded, making for a peaceful experience.

I suggest you bring cash for the lift tickets, it's easier and sometimes they don't accept cards. I almost missed out on my trip up the mountain because I didn't have enough cash
