Pirin National Park (Bansko, Bulgaria) - exact location, interesting places, inhabitants, routes.
The Pirin National Park is located in southwestern Bulgaria, almost at the junction with Macedonia and Northern Greece. This is a huge mountain-forest area of about 400 sq. km, with the center in the resort town of Bansko . In winter, these places become a ski Mecca due to affordable prices compared to alpine resorts. In summer, the tourist flow is much less and in vain, because Pirin is a great place for year-round outdoor activities.

Several mountain ranges pass through the park, with dozens of peaks about 2.5 km high. Valleys covered with meadows, coniferous forests filling the air with useful phytoncides, mountain rivers, the absence of active transport routes and any production facilities at a distance of hundreds of kilometers, Pirin National Park in Bulgaria is a majestic natural beauty plus ideal ecology.
Those who go to the mountains for a few days can stay in huts or small guest houses right on the way to the top.
