Very closed to Sofia.A lift cabin transfer you from the city limits to vitosha mountain (1810m).Terrific view from the lift cabin.A small cheap restaurant and ski rent shop exist there. More

Vitosha is great site to see for everyone who likes walking, hiking, mountain biking ... Paths and sings are spread all over the place so you can't get lost, paths are ok for walking. Getting there is quite easy with the tram from Palace of Justivce (No. 5), about 30 min ride. It is quite good destination for spending day... More

If you have a free day while in Sofia, go to the mountains. Reachable by public transport, you will be able to enjoy the nature and some nice views over the city if the weather is good. More

I went there with family for a picnic, the views from up there are absolutely outstanding. It really worth the badly maintained road to access the picnic area. they are different paths available if you fancy a trek.Everything is well signed (not everything is translated in English) but the paths are clearly marked and it is really something to do...

On a very top there's a great restaurant but before you go make sure it is open. You can drive all the way up and eventhough restaurant is not open they will let you take the walk. From the terrace you have a beautiful view of whole of Sofia. More

It's amazing gift to have the mountain just next to the city. During the wintertime you can easily get there and skiing and during the other seasons it's great for a day walk or picnic :) More

Vitosha mountain is the best choice if you need a “nature” escape just a few minutes away from the city. If you’re in Sofia – don’t miss it. There you can find routes suitable both for nice and calm stroll/outing and serious hiking. You can also drive to certain areas. More

Incredibly clean and beautiful mountains. Distant only 20 minutes from downtown. More
