Itinerary description
Some tips.
- The parking costs just 5 leva per day. Make sure you have it cash.
- The chair lift return ticket costs 25 lev. Again, make sure you have it cash.
- The trails are all well beaten. There are two things that make them challenging though: 1) the difference in level between the chair lift terminus and the lake peak is almost 500 metres; 2) the uphills are pretty steep and uneven, with annoying cobblestones everywhere.
I did not manage to get to the shore of the seven lake (Dolnoto), but I noticed that none of the tourists made it there either. It seems that it is not reachable through the touristic route.
