June 15, 2024,On Top of Bulgaria💚- Musala (Мусала)🤩

Today we wanted to visit the highest peak in Bulgaria. At 2,925.40 m, Musala is the highest mountain in Bulgaria and also in the entire Balkan Peninsula.

Today we left the option open of taking the lift from Borovetz to Yastrebetz, as it is now open again for summer tourism.
