After a few unforgettable days exploring the hidden gems of the Belasitsa Mountains, I found myself reflecting on just how rich this region is in natural wonders.

But this journey wasn’t just about chasing waterfalls. It was also about finding those special places where you can slow down, recharge, and truly connect with the mountain. That’s what brought me to one of the most welcoming spots in the region: the Belasitsa Hut (Хижа Беласица). At 720 meters, surrounded by meadows and forest, it’s the perfect base for hiking, relaxing, and enjoying the peaceful side of the Bulgarian outdoors.
