Summary: Amazing experience! We were visiting on business and thought mountain biking would be a great stress relief and fun way to see more of Sofia. It was very muddy when we went and the trail was a little more challenging than we had anticipated, so we had to walk a few times, but it was still a lot of fun. Never felt unsafe. And our guide Theodore was amazing! He shared some interesting facts about the mountain range, took videos of us riding on the trail, and stopped at each scenic lookout and waterfall along the way. Trail dropped out to a quaint little village area with restaurants and shops. We enjoyed lunch before heading back to our hotel. If you are looking to connect with nature, find beautiful scenic views and lots of fresh air, then this adventure is for you! Was an unforgettable experience I would recommend to everyone!
