Vratsata Bulgaria - Travel Guide, Tours, Hotels and Photos - Pictures of Bulgaria

Vratsata - the fantastic gorge of the Leva River, immediately to the south of the town of Vratsa. Its western rocky massif, full of miraculous cliffs, some of them reaching 350 metres height is extremely impressive. The whole region is karst (as well as the entire Vratza Mountain) and is a paradise for the rock climbers. There are dozens of different categories of climbing routes. The area hosts a large and nice Alpine House and there are a lot of nice meadows scattered along the river, suitable for camping. Vratsata attracts thousands of admirers of nature both from Bulgaria and abroad. From the centre of the town the place can be reached within half an hour on foot. Another possibility to go there is to use the bus transport to the village of Zgorigrad, located on the other side of the gorge.
