The route from the Momina Skala Hut to the Bai Krastyo Shelter is part of Vitosha’s mid-mountain (elevation-wise) ring trail. The climbs and descents along the path are mainly gradual, and we walk mostly through the forest, though views of Sofia open up frequently along the way. The trail crosses a vast stone river and later traverses a stream (Dragalevtsi River) featuring a small waterfall. Note that this route is suitable only for summer travel, as a portion of the trail passes through an avalanche-prone area.
