Orlovo Oko - Eagle's Eye viewpoint

Reviewed By Phred01 - Burgas, Bulgaria

If you're going on foot: GO EARLY! The trail starts just next to Hotel Mursal in Yagodina village and zigzags up to the top. It took us 1 hour 40 minutes to get up there and we were rewarded with a fabulous view. And NO OTHER TOURISTS! We also had a picnic overlooking the Devil's Path on the other side of the valley (you can catch a glimpse of the besedka at the top with binoculars) and were lucky enough to see a couple of eagles fly past. Magical. TAKE A HAT AND WATER if you're doing it in summer as it's very exposed.

Pamporovo Ski Resort

Reviewed By Daveydave696969 - London, United Kingdom

We had 4 gloriously sunny days of skiing this week in Pamps, it was my second visit having learned there myself and subsequently moving on to Morzine. Look this isn't the best ski resort in the world, the only green they have is very long - effectively split into two sections - the first is a lot busier than the second. **Big tip** if the lift queues are too long the first 4 person chair lift down from Students on the green is quieter than the 3 person one right at the bottom. The kids loved it, they learned to ski with a personal ski instructor that cost me around 40 pounds an hour (amazing value IMO) and i'm sure they will out ski me next year, they tried their first blue on the fourth day. Whilst they learned I mostly went on the big long blues (12/12a) reds and I did the wall (2) once which was a bucket list thing for me - I'm not a lover of heights lol The food is great in most places up the mountain however the lifts do close at 4:30 so we eat in Spider House in the evening or at our apartment at the Grand Monastery, thats about it for Apres Ski really. All in all very good value for money, there is a variety of runs however it's not massive.

Reviewed By AlexanderM_BG - Sofia, Bulgaria

The cave is spectatular, however, it is easily accessible even if you are visiting with young children. The area is beautiful and there are plenty of opportunities for hiking, relaxing or dining in the area.

The Wonderful Bridges

Reviewed By A3615NT_ - Rheine, Germany

We`ve visit The Wonderful Bridges on our way to Smolyan.The road to the bridges isn`t too wide so I do advice to be careful while driving. However we visit the Wonderful bridges,had lunch at the restaurant near by and we descend down under via Zip line. Definitely should visit.
