A new interesting attraction draws the attention of tourists in the region of Chepelare – one of the most beautiful places in the Rhodopes. Hunters of beautiful emotions can fly over breath taking landscapes with a speed of nearly 100 kilometers an hour. The Alpine Trolley (The Chepelare Alpine Zipline) installed near the emblematic Rhodope town crosses Chepelarska River. The facility is combined with a sky bike. Adventurers travel a total of 600 meters in the air and enjoy unique bird’s eye view. For the purpose, they wear special equipment. Organizers guarantee that all safety measures have been adopted.


This is the longest air attraction in Bulgaria. Tourists from Bulgaria and abroad arrive in Chepelare to take a ride on the Alpine Trolley. When they lift their adrenaline, they take a walk in the vicinity of the town which is popular mainly as a ski center offering wonderful opportunities for winter sports.


This summer the local entrepreneurs offer the guests a number of entertainments such as horse riding, herb picking, off-roading, etc.
