Two-day hike in the Maleshevska and Pirin mountains. Ascent of Ilyov peak and Pirin peak. Some of the best views to Pirin!!! Komatinski rocks.

Day 1
As usual we start at the Vassil Levski Stadium, at 7 a.m. The beauty of Maleshevska and Vlahina mountains and stunning views of Pirin are the highlights of the day - sharp peaks and outstanding panoramas towards Bulgarian and Macedonian mountains! The walk to Ilyov peak takes 4 or 5 hours there and back. On the way back, we can stop at Komatinski rocks - the Bulgarian Meteora, which unveil a different charm and magic in winter. We go down to Brezhani for the evening.

Day 2
On Sunday, our plan is to climb Pirin's northernmost peak famous for its beauty - Pirin peak! Words fail us to describe the views ahead of us: Pirin is opening up in sharp shapes, about 2500 m beneath us the valley of Struma river, the deepest valley in Bulgaria, has sunk into morning mists. We are surrounded by Maleshevska, Vlahina, Osogovo, Rila and Rhodope mountains. With five hours uphill, the ascent is not easy. The elevation gain is about 1400m. At the end of the day we admire this fantastic weekend!
