Yantra Loop delivers for Hotnitsa Velos

11403409_1022734274411677_3017892588909119276_nA cracking ride for the HOTNITSA VELOS who cycled in stunning weather last Sunday July 5th through fields of sunflowers, empty roads (except for the odd mule cart or goat herder).  They even found some gnarly off roading along side the River Yantra – not for the faint hearted.

Love exploring your local areas on a bike and feeling connected to the landscape, then join the VELOS on their weekly jaunt – everyone is welcome.  They like to create a bit of a stir in the villages, especially when stopping for midway caffeine fixes.

bikeTheir next big ride is in the Stara Planina foothills later in the summer and details will be posted on their FB page HOTNITSA VELOS.  A keen cyclist or just a novice get in touch and explore Veliko Tarnovo under your own steam – literally.

Hotnitsa Waterfalls

Hotnitsa Waterfalls

This is one of those places that reveal the unique beauty of the Bulgarian nature. Hotnitsa Waterfalls are also known as Kaya Bunar –  a natural phenomenon that flows down along the beautiful river valley and forms a number of natural landmarks that visitors can enjoy.

 

Kaya Bunar is located near Hotnitsa village, 15 km north of Veliko Tarnovo. Although not very high or large, the waterfall is one of the most interesting and beautiful in the northern part of Bulgaria.

 

The road to the waterfalls starts two kilometres before the village itself. The parking lot is not very far and from it starts the picturesque Hotnitsa Walking Trail. The waterfalls are approximately 30 metres high. The water flows down into a clear and ice cold pond. The walking trail is only 1.5 km long, but it winds along the Bohot river bed and reveals quirky rock formations, small waterfalls, bridges and green hills.

 

The Emen Canyon is not far from Hotnitsa Waterfalls.
