Ortaburun

Nestled gently in the embrace of the Rhodope Mountains, just a short distance from the vibrant city of Plovdiv, Ortaborun peak is one of those magical places that offer solitude and breathtaking views.

Before your eyes stretches the vast Thracian Plain, picturesque Plovdiv villages and towns, and in the distance, the silhouettes of the Balkan Mountains (Stara Planina) are outlined. This is the ideal spot for a picnic, to savor the silence and vastness, or to capture unforgettable photographs. Birdwatching is another popular activity here, as the area is home to a variety of species. Ortaborun offers the perfect escape from daily life, an opportunity to reconnect with nature and recharge your senses. Whether you seek adventure, photographic inspiration, or simply a place for contemplation, this mountain is ready to welcome you with open arms and offer an unforgettable experience.
