Hiking to Malyovitsa Peak in the northwestern part of the Rila Mountain. It is 2,729 m high and is one of the most popular mountain tourist regions in Bulgaria. Its northern and eastern slopes are steep and almost inaccessible while the southern and south-western slopes are more oblique.

The total lengh of the hike is about 13km - both ways and takes about 8 hours. Ariving about 9:30am and leaving at 7.30pm gives enough time for the hike. The trail itself is easy to follow all the way to the peak. There are a few small restaurants in the area and the Malyovitsa Hut. In addition to the breathtaking vistas along the trail, hikers may encounter diverse flora and fauna, including rare alpine flowers and elusive mountain wildlife. As you ascend to the summit, keep an eye out for the iconic silhouette of Malyovitsa Peak, a symbol of Bulgaria's rich alpine and mounteneering history. Whether you're an experienced mountaineer seeking a challenge or a nature enthusiast yearning for exploration, Malyovitsa offers an unforgettable outdoor experience for all adventurers.
