Pirin on foot

Pirin begins almost at Bansko's doorstep. In summer, the area around Vihren Hut is a natural starting point for glacial lakes, marble ridges and the peak itself. Match your route to your experience and the forecast, and always head into the high mountain properly equipped.

For a gentler day, choose lower forest paths and a picnic. Back at Villa Tiana, the garden is made for a cold drink, a barbecue and stories from the trail.
