Мore than 120 km is the length of tourist paths in the region of Veliko Tu

Anita Valentinova, source : infotourism.net, 04.07.2009

The tourist paths in the region of Veliko Tarnovo are over 120 km. long, announced Georgi Dimitrov – secretary of the union “Trapezitsa 1902″. Routes comprise all directions leading from the city to natural and cultural landmarks. There are ecological paths to the west, in the region of “Sinya vir” (“the Blue pool”), near the branching road from the town of Veliko Tarnovo to the village Bukovets and Shenshovo, as well as near the artificial lake in Dalbok dol.

Dimitrov declared that the latter two are easier routes. “ In fact, there are two routes near Sinia vir, one of which goes around the rocks. The other one is chiefly used by climbers as it is on entirely different level of difficulty. These routes are steep tourism paths instead of those suitable for mountaineering and climbing. On the scale of 1 to 10, it may ranks at 5 or 6 in terms of difficulty.”, said Dimitrov. He also reminded that there is no need of special equipment to pass through even the most difficult paths. Directions to the south to Veliko Tarnovo and Xilifor start from the village of Prisivo. There are paths divided into 9 directions from the Xilifor. “Other directions are to northwest and northeast. This is the main route to the Transfiguration Monastery and the “Holy Trinity” monastery.

There are 4-5 branching roads from the “Holy Trinity” monastery and they all lead to the Arbanassi plateau and there is a connecting road to the Bozhur chalet. Dimitrov said that only routes which are not renovated yet are those which go around the two waterfalls in the direction of the Transfiguration Monastery. Branching roads which cross the Sinia Vir, the new branching road which climbers use in the region of the “Holy Trinity” monastery and the chalet “Bozhur” are so steep and they pass through rock area, so they have been marked in yellow. All other routes are easily accessible.
