Nature has been very generous to this
area. In the foot of the Balkan Peninsula's tallest peak,
Musala (2,925 m) in Rila, springs the Bela Mesta River. Whether
you decide to walk, cycle, or go on horseback in the Rila
and Pirin National Parks (the second is under the protection
of UNESCO) and in the Western Rhodope Natural Park, you will
enjoy stunningly beautiful views.
