Ski mountaineering day on Musala (2925m), Bulgaria (Rila Mountains)

Explore one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in Europe, the Rila Mountains. Join me on this ski mountaineering day on Musala (2,925 m). And live an unforgettable adventure.

Ski mountaineering is one of the most fantastic sports. As it combines thrilling mountain ascents, with the best skiing from the top. So, not only we’ll stay away from the resort crowds. We’ll also, get to enjoy the wildest and most fun descents.

On this incredible day, we’ll climb the highest mountain on the Balkans: Musala. This colossal peak stands at 2,925 meters. And from its top we’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the Rila Mountains. Also, once we reach the top, our skiing adventure will begin. From the summit, we will ski down to the Borovets resort. And on the way there, we’ll explore other equally mesmerizing spots. For instance, one of the places we’ll ski by is the Icy lake, the highest lake on this area.

In order to make the most of our day, we will start early. We can depart from the enchanting city of Sofia. Or, we could stay for the night at a village family house near the Borovets resorts. Once we meet, we’ll head to the gondola up to the Yastrebets hut (2,300 m). Thereupon, we’ll start our ascension, which will take us around 3 hours. Thereon the real fun begins, as we descend from the Balkan’s tallest mountain.
