Description
During the 3-day adventure we will cross the Northern Pirin Mountains over its main ridge – the Tipitisite ridge. We will climb the top of Pirin – Mount Vihren, and see a huge number of the blue glacial lakes of Pirin, located in the foot of its jagged rocky peaks. The accommodation is in mountain huts, particularly Tevno Hut, situated at 2500 m of elevation in the heart of Pirin National Park, is a unique place to stay. The basic conditions and lack of shower are a good price for the best panoramas over Kamenitsa Peak and Tevno Lake, also the food and the beer you would find the tastiest in Pirin.
The route is demanding, with some very rocky sections of the trail, as well as physically challenging. So we will advice you to plan on it if you are in good physical condition and you are not in doubt in your ability to walk a bit more challenging, although not exposed, terrain.
