Geocache Description:

The cache is located near Musala, the highest peak of the Balkans (2925m above sea level).

There are two possible starting points. One is from Borovets, and the other one from Yakoruda.
If you decide to conquer the peak from Borovets, you can count with a not too hard 5-6hr pleasant walk. You can have a rest in two mountain huts, one is at 2375m (Musala hut), and the other one is right at the foot of the Musala (2720m).
The other possible approach is a little bit shorter (4hr). You can drive up your car upto the entrance of the Rila Park (1980m), the new road has just been finished.
