“Velingrad 4х4 and friends” is the name of the off-road event taking place this coming weekend in Velingrad in the Rhodopes, a town known for its curative waters.

Hundreds of participants from all over Bulgaria will take place in the event which was to have taken place at the beginning of April but was postponed over the state of emergency. Besides jeep races, it includes off-road trips in the environs of the town, a barbecue party, in compliance with strict safety measures because of the pandemic.
