I had originally made an “out-of-chronological-order” post about my trip to Belogradchik, which you can find here.
I loved it there so much that I could not wait to do it in chronological order. But there is some information I would like to add, specifically about getting there and back.
When I was researching this, I found out there was a bus. But the information was really lacking and completely conflicting. Now that I have been there, I can help.
I am going to be going out of chronological order with this one but I am just dying to post about it.
Yesterday afternoon, I took a bus from Sofia to Belogradchik. I got picked up at the bus station by the owner of the guest house I was staying at (Drakite Guest House). For a whopping $19 usd, I had a very nice room with private balcony and a shower so big that you could take every shower I have had to so far on this trip and fit them all inside.
This morning I am up so early go to see the fortress. I cannot wait. I pause to take a morning photo from my balcony.
Then off I go. To get to the fortress is a very strenuous walk uphill. Up many hills. But the walk features GOATS!!
