Looking for hidden gems in Bulgaria? 🇧🇬 I t Looking for hidden gems in Bulgaria? 🇧🇬

I took a little break from seeing historic landmarks to explore the nature side of Bulgaria. This is Krushuna Falls, which is accessible by a walking trail. The area is surrounded by forests and other waterfalls too, so there’s plenty to see here! 💦

There’s a small entry fee to access the trails, and it needs to be paid in cash 💰

Would you visit this waterfall in Bulgaria? 👀
