Beli Iskar

Beli Iskar resort

This lovely village is located in the foot of Rila mountain, on  8 km from Borovets, 65 km from the capital Sofia and 7 km from Samokov. This small mountain resort is situated on 1130 m above the sea level. Some of the most attractive routes to Mousala start from here.

Everyone who has visited the village is always promising to return. And it is definitely worth the effort. Beautiful and cosy houses are arranged like a rosary among the pine trees. Actually this is not a common village. Everyone will notice that the air is filled with strange tension. You can also feel it in the mood of the locals.

Everyone is excited over the Super Borovets Project which will turn the village into one of the most visited winter destinations.

Just few years ago, when the rumour about the project started, no one could believe it. However it is a fact that the price of the local land went higher. Now, the village provides everything needed for tourists, who barely knew the site just a few years ago.

There is a tourism information center in the village and most of the locals are giving out rooms for rent. Most of the houses also offer small mehanas on their ground floor. Thus, visitors have the chance to taste the famous “Rilski zelnik” (special kind of banitsa).
