Summer 2017 Part 4: Hiking The Bulgarian E4 - The Rila Mountains

After crossing the Carpathian Mountains in Romania, I took a train to Sofia in Bulgaria and began following the E4 European Long Distance Trail southwards. The Bulgarian E4 took me through the spectacular Rila and Pirin Mountains before terminating on the Greek border.

This video shows my 5-day walk across the Vitosha. Verila and Rila ranges, ending with a hitchhike to Bansko so that I could buy food.

Bulgaria is a fantastic country for hiking in. The mountains are beautiful, nearly all of the paths I followed were well signposted, and there are also huts if you want them.

I filmed all of this on my phone without really knowing what I was doing, so apologies for the shaky camera work.

The video features the songs 'Up Escalators' and 'Abacus' by Edamame: http://www.edamamebeats.com/
