Yes, meet Balkan, the mountain that gave its name to the Balkan peninsula. Welcome to the Balkan mountains, a unique nature park!
The Balkan mountain range (Balkan) lies partially in Serbia, and mostly in Bulgaria. It is about 600 km long, and from 30 to 50 km wide. It stretches from Vrska Cuka in the north to the Black sea in the east, and it’s the extension of the southern Carpathians.
Harmoniously blended intact nature, interesting history, and rich tradition have made the mountain a perfect place for vacation. Especially attractive and significant natural sights on Balkan include the Bigar stream valley, Midžor (the highest summit), the impressive rocks of Babin Zub, the Temštica river meanders, to name a few. Balkan is a protected area, and it is classified as a nature park. Village landscapes resemble dreamlike images, such as the ones of a long forgotten paradise!
