Chris and Penny Hevey, Magic of Rhodope Mountains Tour, August 2007

Our hike took us through small villages and  isolated monasteries and areas of spiritual significance and on to a traditional outdoor music festival with barbecued meats and ice cold beer.   We discovered beautiful scenery combining lakes, mountains and natural geological formations which were both spectacular and breathtaking.  We both have a  reasonable level of fitness and liked walks of 6 - 8 hrs each day but shorter routes can be arranged or combined with transportation if you require.
