A morning lift out of Sofia and within half an hour the city’s glass and concrete fall away, replaced by fir-scented slopes and a low, patient wind. The tour sets off from Dragalevtsi near the cable car, threading through pine and spruce toward open ridgelines. You climb toward Kamen Del (1,876 m), where the summit opens a wide, cold-breath panorama of Sofia below — an earned view after hours on rocky tracks and forested switchbacks.
