Kobilini Steni and Borov Kamak - the Magic of the Vratsa Balkan NEW
The Vratsa Balkan is a remarkable place to walk in any season. One of its most striking natural features is Kobilini Steni - somewhere to see at least once, and especially at this time of year. On our trek we will climb several summits, including the highest of the Vratsa Balkan, Beglichka Mogila (1,481.4 m) 🏔️. And of course we will not miss one of the mountain's emblematic corners - the Borov Kamak waterfall 💦.

Tour Itinerary
After arriving at Parshevitsa hut, the guides will give a short briefing and safety instruction. We shoulder our packs 🎒 and set off to carry out the day's plan.
The route begins with the climb to Parshevitsa peak, and from there continues along the edge of Kobilini Steni towards Beglichka Mogila. The path passes Krastanova Mogila and Dudil peak, and then, past Ushite, reaches a junction where a pleasant descent begins towards the Borov Kamak monument. From there we head for the Borov Kamak waterfall, where we will take a cool rest, enjoy the beauty of the falling water and, of course, take photographs 📸.
After a short break we head back to Parshevitsa hut, closing today's circular route ⭕.
