The parking lot of Vada Hut

A trail through the forest, suitable for both summer and winter. If you are in the meadow in front of Lovna Hut, you need to go around the building from the right, and at the edge of the forest there, you will see the sign for Vada Hut. Head into the forest and pass by the water turbine that supplies the hut with electricity. The Dzherman River will be on your right, which you will soon cross via a small wooden bridge. After the bridge, there is a short ascent through the forest, after which you will descend to one of the many dirt roads in this part of the Rila Mountains. You turn right along this road and keep following it until you reach the first left turn, where you will find trail signs and an information board. There, continue straight through the forest on either of the two paths ahead of you - the left path is gentler, and the official trail markings follow it, but judging by how not-really-well-trodden it is, people seem to prefer the steep path that climbs straight up. After a short and steep climb, you will emerge at the junction where our trail merges with the blue markings coming from the Seven Lakes Hut. Continue straight ahead along the dirt road that descends steeply through the forest, and follow it until you reach the small bridge over the river next to Vada Hut. This is the Pravi (Straight) Iskar River - one of the many tributaries of the Iskar River. Shortly after the bridge, you will see the hut itself.
