Join us in this adventure and enjoy a combination of experiences varying from night hiking to climbing and contemplating the breathtaking views from the highest peak in Pirin Mountain.

Pirin National Park encompasses the larger part of the Pirin Mountains in southwestern Bulgaria, spanning an area of 403.56 km2 (155.82 sq mi). Pirin National Park was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983. The altitude varies from 950 m to 2,914 m at Vihren, Bulgaria's second highest summit and the Balkans' third.

Our adventure will start in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria. From there we will drive to Bansko, a town in the southwestern part of the country and a very popular international ski resort. This exiting program includes variety of hiking experience, including night trekking, climbing Koncheto – a tight saddle with sharp edges, hiking to Vihren summit (2 914 m) and the possibility for cultural immersion and relaxation in one of the many areas with hot mineral springs that Bulgarian nature offers.
