Description

The trip starts with a pick-up from your hotel at 11:00 by a private car and from there you will travel 45 minutes to the small village Chekanchevo, nested in 'Sredna Gora' mountain. When you arrive there, first you will enjoy a leisurely stroll through the pine forest. The scenic path leads to a viewpoint where you can admire five distinct mountains, including the tallest on the peninsula, as well as a Roman monument dating back to the 4th century AD. Walk along the route taken by troops during Bulgaria's third most significant battle for liberation in 1877, a military achievement still studied in academies around the world. After the walk, you will visit an authentic rural house and delight in a homemade three-course lunch prepared by “Mama” mother Tanya, featuring fresh local products sourced straight from the farm. The lunch also includes locally made “rakia” and wine. In the late afternoon, your driver will bring you back to your place of staying in Sofia.
