      From here you enter the Rila National Park. After the gate you will find an overview map with the park rules. Please follow them to protect our nature.

        Start of the trail to Malyovitsa hut. In some places you can also find it as the Malyovitsa eco-trail. The route is not difficult, but it is very picturesque. The hut is located about 3km from the start of the trail and the Malyovitsa and Alpinist hotels. There is also a large paid parking lot there.

        A large part of the trail goes through a forest and there is a lot of shade. There is a fountain in the middle of the route, so you can safely pour yourself some water.
