Programme:

Day 1:

Bezbog hut - Popovo lake - Demirkapiyska Porta - Mitrovo lake - Right Kraledvorska Porta - Kralev Dvor peak - Tevno lake hut

10:30 AM We gather at Gotse Delchev hut and we take the chair lift to Bezbog hut. From here begins our trek among the granite giants and turquoise lakes of Pirin. First, we will visit Popovo lake and on the way we will enjoy the panoramic views of Sivria, Jano, Kralev Dvor and Jengala peaks. After that, the Samodivski lakes await us and a climb to the left Kraledvorska porta, from where we will see Tevno ezero for the first time!

After recharging ourselves with the view, we will climb to Kralev Dvor Peak and finish the day with a descent to our favorite hut, Tevno Ezero, and a hearty dinner, which will be tastier than ever, especially after a day of such adventures! If the weather allows us, and we have the strength and desire, we will also visit the nearby peaks Momin Dvor and Valevishki Chukar.

Day 2:

Tevno lake hut - Jengal peak - Valevishki lakes - Jengalska Porta -  Bezbog hut

We get up very early and in about 40 minutes, we climb Momin Dvor peak to meet the sunrise over the dark teeth of Jengala! Once we've recharged with the energy of the sunrise, we'll descend back to the hut for breakfast, then head out to the ridgeline that will open our way to Jengala! The climb to the top is challenging, but the panorama it reveals covers almost all the Pirin peaks, and is definitely worth the effort!

After enjoying the view, we will go down to Valevishki Circus and its lakes. Passing along the shores of the lakes and enjoying the most beautiful view of Jengala and its needles, we will climb to Jengalska porta and return back to Bezbog hut, where our mountain adventure ends. We take the lift down to our cars and head to one of the best local restaurants to properly celebrate this weekend in the heart of Pirin!
