Description

Conquer Musala Peak (2,925 m) on a thrilling winter hike. Experience alpine landscapes, crisp mountain air, and the challenge of reaching the highest summit in the Balkans in the winter.
Join us for a winter adventure to Musala Peak (2,925 m) – the highest point in Bulgaria and the entire Balkan Peninsula. This guided hike takes you through the majestic Rila Mountains, offering a unique combination of pristine alpine landscapes, crisp mountain air, and breathtaking panoramic views.

Your experience begins with a comfortable private transfer from Sofia to the mountain resort of Borovets, where your hiking journey starts. From there, you will take the cabin lift up to the Yastrebets area, stepping directly into a snowy wonderland. Led by a professional mountain guide, you’ll hike along a scenic trail that passes by frozen lakes and mountain huts, all framed by the beauty of Rila’s winter wilderness.

The route to Musala in winter is both exciting and rewarding. While the hike requires good physical condition, your guide will ensure a safe and enjoyable pace with regular breaks for rest and photos. Along the way, you’ll learn interesting facts about the mountain’s geology, flora, and fauna, and hear stories about the significance of Musala throughout Bulgarian history.

At the summit, you’ll be rewarded with unforgettable views – on a clear day you can see far into neighboring mountain ranges and even across borders. Standing on top of the Balkans in winter is a true bucket-list achievement and a memory that will stay with you forever.

After the hike, you’ll descend back to Borovets and relax on your private transfer back to Sofia, where the adventure concludes.

This experience is ideal for active travelers, nature lovers, and anyone seeking a once-in-a-lifetime adventure in Bulgaria’s highest mountains. Whether you’re visiting the country for the first time or returning to explore deeper, conquering Musala in winter is an unforgettable journey.
