A fresh perspective on eastern Rila

Routes around Belmeken pass through forests, mountain meadows and ridges, with impressive views towards the Pirin and Rhodope Mountains. Along the trails, you can breathe the fresh mountain air, hear birdsong and experience the natural surroundings up close. The landscape is more than a distant backdrop: you are right in it, discovering the mountains through movement, sounds and changing views.

This experience brings together natural beauty, adrenaline and a sense of freedom. It is suitable both for riders who already have ATV experience and for those trying it for the first time. For nature lovers, the route offers a way to discover new scenery; for thrill-seekers, it adds an energetic dimension to time outdoors.

Choose the duration and pace that suit you

Choose a one-hour or two-hour ride if you would like a shorter adventure and an introduction to the area. The one-hour ride lasts 60 minutes, while the two-hour experience allows more time on the mountain routes. Both durations are offered with either a single-seat ATV for one person or a two-seat ATV for two people.

If you would rather make a day of it, a full-day ride is also offered with a single-seat ATV for one person or a two-seat ATV for two. The provider’s description of the full-day tour includes lunch and a picnic amid the mountain greenery, giving you time not only to ride but also to spend longer enjoying Rila’s surroundings.

Individually planned routes can also be arranged to reflect your preferences, experience level and preferred riding pace. This possibility must be discussed with the provider; it does not mean that every selected ride is automatically a private or customised tour. The standard experience takes place in a shared group with other participants you may not know.

A briefing before you set off

Before each outing, you receive a concise but thorough briefing covering the basic rules of ATV operation, safe riding techniques and the particular features of the route ahead. It is designed to help you understand what to expect and how to respond during the ride, including if you have no previous experience.

An instructor is included in the experience and is available for questions and guidance. Safety is central to the organisation of the tour, which is designed to offer an active but controlled adventure. Routes vary in length and difficulty, allowing the mountain experience to take account of your preparation and the level of challenge you are looking for.

What is included

• An ATV ride with the duration and number of participants specified by your selected package.
• A safety briefing and an instructor.
• Fuel for the ride.
• Equipment: a helmet and a mask or goggles.

For the full-day tour, lunch and a picnic form part of the experience described by the provider. They are not listed as included in the shorter one-hour and two-hour rides.

Age requirements and participation limits

You must be at least 18 to drive an ATV. Driving is also permitted from age 16 with a signed declaration of parental consent. Children over 7 may ride on the rear seat as passengers, making the experience suitable for children subject to these conditions. The stated minimum age for the experience is 7, while the specific rear-seat passenger condition applies to children older than that.

A weight limit of 150 kg is stated. Meeting the age requirements, observing the limits and following the briefing are part of preparing to take part.

Seasons, operating hours and preparation

Rides operate daily throughout the year. Summer operating hours are 09:00 to 18:00, while winter hours are 09:00 to 16:00. The experience is weather-dependent, so the specific day and time are arranged when booking.

If you choose a winter ride, overalls and gloves are recommended. A helmet and a mask or goggles are included, but the recommendation to bring suitable winter clothing remains an important part of your preparations.

Submit your booking request at least 72 hours, or 3 days, before your preferred start time. The provider states that cancellation is free up to 24 hours before the booked ride.
