The residents of Sofia and the guests of the Bulgarian capital are "privileged" with a mountain only a stone's throw away from the city centre. In less than 30 minutes, using the Simeonovo-Aleko cable car and the two chairlifts "Vitoshko Lale 1" and "Vitoshko Lale 2", you can reach the highest point of Vitosha Mountain - Cherni vrah peak rising at an altitude of 2290 metres. And once there, enjoy a magnificent view in all directions.



















It is important to know that the Vitosha cable cars and lifts only work on Saturdays and Sundays. The facilities themselves are used by both pedestrians and also by cyclists who fans of mountain biking.
