Two-day winter hike in the Rhodope Mountains in its most pristine and charming area - Mugla. Walk from the village of Gela via the Lednitsata chalet to Mugla and back. Visit to the beautiful cave Lednitsata.

Day 1

 As usual we meet up in front of the Vassil Levski Stadium in Sofia where we head off to Devin, Shiroka Laka and Gela. Our hike starts there. Snowshoeing is real fun and first-timers will have a great time. We arrive at the Lednitsata chalet after a 1.5-hour walk in the enchanting Rhodope forests. After a break we go to the Lednitsata cave in the afternoon, located some 30-40 min from the chalet. Our encounter with its ice stalactites and stalagmites in weird and untouched shapes is a real adventure. We spend the evening by the fireplace over a glass of wine. :)

Day 2

We get up early and head off to Mugla, one of the quaintest Rhodope villages nestling deep in the Perelik area of the Rhodopes. Having wandered in an hour and a half in the woods, we enjoy the Rhodope scenery painted in blue, white and green. What follows is a descent to Mugla which is a delight to the eye and soul! In the village we shall have a bite of patatnik (a local potato pie) and in the afternoon we go back. In winter, the village is cut off from the world which adds to the magic of our winter trip. :)
