Midžor, soaring at 2,169 meters, is the highest peak of the Balkan Mountains, straddling the border between Serbia and Bulgaria. Renowned for its breathtaking views and accessible trails, Midžor is a favorite destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts seeking to experience the serene beauty of the Balkans. The summit offers panoramic vistas that stretch across verdant landscapes, making it a must-visit for anyone exploring this part of Europe.

The highest peak in Serbia. You can reach it from Bulgaria or Serbia. From the Bulgarian side there are two ways to the summit. A normal path (which is pretty easy) and one that is quite strenuous and overgrown (you have to make your own way through the bushes and trees). The view from the top is sooooo beautiful. There are also a lot of hikers from Serbia there.
