The Three Dolls are a rock formation in the Chiprovtsi Balkan, about 7 km south-west of Chiprovtsi. They have not been declared a protected area and are not listed in the register of protected areas.

What it is

The Three Dolls are three rocky peaks right next to Trite Chuki peak, in the same high-mountain massif above the Stara Reka valley. Hiking routes in the area give views of both Trite Chuki and the Three Dolls. We found no reliable data on their height or geology.

Visiting

The ground around the peaks is wild and needs good preparation; for a first visit, tourism sources recommend a local mountain guide. A day to Trite Chuki is about 8–9 hours of walking with about 1,100 m of climbing.

Getting there

The starting point is Chiprovtsi. Vodniya Skok and the Chiprovtsi Waterfall are nearby.

Nearby

  • Chiprovtsi Waterfall — about 2 km.
