- Aleko Hut - Mount Vitosha is one of Bulgaria’s most cherished and frequented mountains. Embark on a classic trail beginning at Aleko Hut, ascending to Cherni Vrah peak, and descending via an alternate route beneath Malak Rezen peak’s rock. Traverse the mountain’s characteristic stone rivers, pass near the Peat Reserve, and climb to the highest peak. Along the journey, enjoy the company of high mountain birds and their enchanting songs. The alpine zone is home to the elusive Balkan Chamois (Wild Mountain Goat) and herds of Roe Deer. You’ll also have the opportunity to admire and photograph rare and stunning flowers like the Vitosha Tulip and various orchids. The descent is equally breathtaking, offering panoramic views of Vitosha’s lush forests, Sofia city, and the Balkan Mountains on the horizon.

Awesome hike on mount Vitosha! - My friend and I had a one day hiking tour on mt Vitosha. Todor is one of the best you could ask for in a hiking journey. We had Todor as our hiking guide on our hike to mount Vitosha. He's kind, friendly, knowledgeable and professional. During our hike, he fed us with good knowledge about the mountain, the plants, the habitat, the tornado disaster etc. Knowing we are not experts on hiking, he took great care of us on our way and was willing to go a lil adventurous with us so that we could experience the whole of Mt. Vitosha. We are really happy to have Todor as our guide!
