Trail description

A long one-way walk of about 27 km from the Babin Zub mountain hut along the main ridge of Stara Planina over Midžor (2169 m), the highest summit of Serbia, to Kopren (1965 m) on the Bulgarian border. The path follows open grassy crests with views far into Bulgaria and has almost no shade or water after the hut. Plan a full day and a car or lift back from the Kopren side.
