Dragalevtsi district – Dragalevtsi Monastery

During the first part of the hike, we follow the red-marked route to Aleko Hut the entire way. From the small square in Dragalevtsi, we head straight up the street opposite the drinking fountain. After its first left turn, look out for a right turn where trail markers and signs are visible. This small street will lead us to the lower station of the now-defunct Dragalevtsi chairlift. We pass by the station and walk through the forest until reaching the fork for the Dragalevtsi Monastery, located at one of the points where our trail crosses an asphalt road.

At the fork, we turn right along the asphalt road, cross the bridge over the river, and take the trail to the left until we meet the asphalt once again. Here, we can bypass another bend in the asphalt road by continuing along the trail ahead of us. However, when we meet the asphalt road for the next time, the trail continuing up alongside the river must be left behind. Our objective lies to the right, so here we turn onto the road and follow it until we reach the monastery.
