About this activity
Escape Sofia for two days on horseback through the pristine Teteven region of the Balkan Mountains, combining guided riding with overnight immersion in one of Bulgaria's most unspoiled natural landscapes. This private experience takes you beyond standard tourist routes into remote villages and mountain terrain that reveal the country's true character.
You will spend there 2 days, in which you will combine the visits to interesting and famous places with the pleasure of wandering off the tourist trails riding on a horse back!
Teteven Balkan is one of the most beautiful areas in Bulgaria. 2 days here and you are a different person. Seeing is believing.
