Popovo Lake
Lake
👍👍 Go there. There's a legend behind the name. Ottoman Turks were after a Christian priest who climbed up a peak and, finding no escape, threw himself in the lake. His hat floated on top of the water. Popovo is derived from "priest". The bushy isle in the lake is the priest's hat.

Lake Muratovo
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Lake Muratovo is one of several alpine lakes in the Pirin Mountains which can be accessed from Vihren Chalet. I'd rank this hike as easy to intermediate - while it is reasonably short you will gain around 400m of elevation (you'll be hiking to over 2,000m) and there are some steep and rocky gradient...

Bezbog Lake
Nature preserve
👍👍 Amazing lake which could be easily accessed by the cable car or by SUV due to the bad conditions of the road. There is a hut next to it where they cook amazing! Bezbog Lake is the starting point for the other lakes as well as the peak.

Hiking area
👍👍 *update December 2023 Cuurently there's a small sinkhole right before the trail (pics attached), and the river is dry. You can still reach the trail easily, though. We parked on the side of the road but on weekends you might have to find a better option. Great forest trail alongside the water! Mostl...

Baikushev's pine
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Unique 1300 years old black mulberry tree. In the heart of Pirin mountain. There is an asphalt road reaching 200 meters below the tree. You can leave your car at the parking and climb the wooden stairs to get to the oldest coniferous tree in Bulgaria and one of the oldest in the world also.

👍👍 Този исторически център с право гордо се възвицява в близост до центъра на Банско. Всеки един град се нуждае от такива центрове, които да възвицяват и учат на всичко българско младото поколение. Ако имате възможност, посетете го!

👍 If you find yourself in the Bansko area during the summer and are in search of an exhilarating adventure, I cannot recommend enough a visit to the longest water slide in Europe. To reach this thrilling attraction, you will embark on a cable car journey, which costs 40 leva for a round-trip ticket. T...
