We show you the best things to do at the black sea coast of Bulgaria in this episode and give tips for excursions and tours you should do when you visit.
Bulgaria has so much more sights than just the beaches like golden sands and sunny beach - it also has more things to do than just drinking cheap alcohol and joining the parties:
The ancient towns of Sozopol and Nesebar are amongst the oldest cities of Bulgaria and are very nice located - totally worth a visit!
Varna is one of the biggest cities of the country and therefore a bit more hustling and bustling, but if you head out of town e.g. to Raponggi Beach you also find some quiet spots to relax.
Especially the coast north of Varna with it's cliffs is very stunning, the following spots have been our favorite places at the black sea coast:
- Cape Kaliakra
- Thracian Cliffs Golf & Beach Resort
- Botanical Garden of Balchik
In the next episode of our Balkan Road Trip we'll visit Skopje in Macedonia!

FANTASTIC RAILWAY.BULGARIA ENGLISH VERSION. #Bulgaria#Velingrad#Avramovo#Railway
Rhodope narrow-gauge railway impresses with its beauty and originality of the landscape.
Her route runs through exceptionally picturesque places - the Gornothracian lowland, the Rila, Rhodopes and Pirin mountains.
Apparently, this is what impressed the British, who voted and included the only narrow-gauge railway left in Bulgaria in the TOP-10 in the questionnaire of The Guardian newspaper.
The narrow gauge railway Septemvri - Dobrinishte or Line No. 16 is the last operating line of the narrow gauge railway, 760 mm gauge, of the Bulgarian State Railways BDZ. It leads from the city of Septemvri through Velingrad and Bansko to Dobrinishte. The route passes between the Rila and Rhodope mountain ranges and ends to the east of the Pirin Mountains. The total length of the line is 125 km, the average travel time is about 5 hours. Avraamovo is the highest mountain railway station in Bulgaria 1267 meters above sea level and the Balkans. Avramovo is a village in the Blagoevgrad region of Bulgaria. It is part of the Yakoruda community. It is located about 2 km north of the center of the city of Yakoruda and about 47 km east of the center of the city of Blagoevgrad. According to the 2011 census, 723 people lived in the village. Mostly populated by Muslim Bulgarians.

[4K] Теснолинейката; Всички гари от Добринище до Септември / Stations from Dobrinishte to Septemvri
В това видео може да видите всички гари от единствената останала теснолинейка в България - от Добринище до Септември. Може да се насладите на красотата на три от планините в България - Рила, Родопи и Пирин. Също така може да видите едни от най-популярните курортни градове в България - Велинград, Якоруда, Разлог, Банско и Добринище. Съставът на бързия влак 1662 беше 6-вагонен, теглен от теснолинеен дизелов локомотив 75 005 на БДЖ ПП. Целта на това пътуване беше да снимам цялото разстояние между Добринище и Септември, но поради проблем със записите успях да спася само тези, на които има гари и част от участъка Долене - Септември. Проблемът със записите е и виновникът, заради който се забави публикуването на това видео. Също така съм оставил нарочно някъде, където няма гари, поради многото красиви забележителности на този маршрут. Записите за заснети с Gopro Hero 9 на 30.06.2022 г. Пожелавам Ви приятно гледане!
In this video you can see all the stations of the only remaining narrow gauge railway in Bulgaria - from Dobrinishte to Septemvri. You can enjoy the beauty of three of the mountains in Bulgaria - Rila, Rodopi and Pirin. You can also see some of the most popular resort towns in Bulgaria - Velingrad, Yakoruda, Razlog, Bansko and Dobrinishte. The composition of the fast train 1662 was 6-car, hauled by narrow-gauge diesel locomotive 75 005 of BDZ PP. The purpose of this trip was to photograph the entire distance between Dobrinishte and Septemvri, but due to a problem with the records, I was able to save only those with stations. The recording issue is also the culprit behind the delay in publishing this video. I have also purposely left somewhere where there are no stations due to the many beautiful sights on this route. The entries for shot with Gopro Hero 9 on 30.06.2022 Have a nice viewing!

107 - Bulgaria - Taking Bulgaria's Last Narrow Gauge Railway Journey.
#narrowgauge #bulgaria
We had an amazing day today, taking the last remaining Narrow Guage Railway in Bulgaria up to Avramovo, the highest railway station in the Balkans. Although the train is slow, it is a beautiful train journey. When we returned back to Plovdiv, we continued exploring the city, looking at all the beautiful houses, and exploring the ancient mosaics at the Bishop’s Basilica of Philippopolis.
