Selskata Mogila (2,017 m) is a peak in the Ravnets massif of the Kalofer mountain, north of Karlovo.
Ravnets (Chufadaritsa until 1942) rises south of the main Stara Planina ridge, between the Stara and Byala rivers; to the north a saddle at 1,870 m joins it to the Kalofer mountain at Zhaltesh peak and the Botev massif. Its crest is broad and flat, at 1,900–2,000 m, with low summits. The highest point is Ravnets peak (2,020.7 m).
Selskata Mogila is one of the summits along the crest of the massif, together with Ravnets, Sinite Kamani, Belchu and Hayduta, and it is climbed on the hiking routes from Karlovo and the village of Vasil Levski. The massif is built of granite and crystalline rock, and the crest is covered in pasture. Ravnets lies in Central Balkan National Park; its huts are Vasil Levski, Hubavets, Balkanski Rozi and Ravnets.
