Chepelare a door to the Rhodopes

7 days active holiday in a full board in Chepelare

Chepelare is one of those towns which look like a postcard both during the winter and summer mounts of the year. Huddled under a thick layer of snow or sunk under a sea of greenery, gifted by a lot of sun, the town attracts both skiers and snowboarders, as well as mountaineers, that enjoy extreme sports, together with dedicated mountain connoisseurs. To taste the roasted cheverme with a glass of chilled wine..; to catch a fish and cook it by yourself; to rise the adrenaline by taking part in a jeep safari; to go down underground, straight in the “devil's throat”.. Yes! These and many other pleasant emotions are waiting for you in Chepelare.

Monday: Bus excursion to the Devil's throat and Yagodinska caves:

The views are enchantingly changing when you travel through the Rhodope mountain. The colours are so bright and fresh, and the smell of a fir forest, blooming flowers and herbs on the meadows, exhilarates you. The Trigrad gorge. We are heading to search for the beauty hidden in the Earths heart, far from the people's sight. Of course it is worth to take the temptation. To hear the groan of the underground waterfall, to find arcs, halls, peculiar objects, almost mythical creatures, often born by the game between the light and darkness, as well as your imagination and fantasy. It is hard to realize that this the genius of Nature, created during the thousands centuries long history of the Earth. We go out, happy to have the eyes and senses to see and feel the complete beauty, gathered in the colours of the flowers and their scent, in the flight of the rare birds, the glory of the mountain and everything live created and preserved by the earth.

Tuesday – Trip to the “Wonderful Bridges”

the “Wonderful bridges” are an unique natural sightseeing in the Rhodope mountain. The genius artwork of the nature, has left us an unique beauty. The trip plans a 30-40 minutes walking tour to the “Skalni mostove” chalet with comfortable benches, suitable for picnic. The short rest will be followed by a walking trip to the Zabardo village which will take 2.5 hours, along and easy terrain with beautiful scenery. Zabardo village offers a reproduction of a authantic historical village, decorated with the artworks of famous masters of the national crafts. Bus trip back to Chepelare 6.30 PM Wednesday: A trip through the heart of the Rodope mountain to Smilyan village: We head through the endless Rhodope mountains to recharge ourselves. To charge ourselves with emotions from the beautiful colours and adventures. There is one more way to discover the mountain for yourself – to touch the waters, that the Rhodope mountains so generously grants us. The road passes through Smolyan. This beautiful mountain city can be only reached on wheels, as the mountain guards it so jealously. Smolyan has preserved the lifestyle, history and traditions in a rich exposition in it museums. The local planetarium will take you high in the universe, where the song “Izlyal e Delyo haidutin” by Valya Balkanska floats. We reach the Smilyan village, famous for its special sort of beans. The village is already a popular culinary destination. The locals have patented the local beans with all rights reserved. Visit to the local lake, where you can relax over the soft carpet of fragrant grass or listen to the many voices in the song of nature. Angles can try their luck with the fish in the lake. The region is also suitable for walking tours. Lunch can be prepared out in the open and everyone is invited to help with its preparation.

Thursday: Jeep safari

This is probably a way to stand up in front of the mightiness of the mountain. Get on the 4x4 and pass through difficult terrains, steep hills and be able to reach the most distant site, the highest peak of the giant body of the Rhodope mountain.

Friday or Sunday – the spirit of Chepelare

You just need to pun on descent pair of shoes, pack your bags and follow the guide.

Than we will head along mountain trails, meadows and shadowy forests. Fragrant flowers and grasses and herbs are everywhere. Our guide will show you how to pick the proper herbs for your tee or spice on the table. You will be also able to pick up mushroom, with the support of the guide of course, as some of them are very delicious, but others can be quite dangerous.
