A pleasant, beautiful and slightly demanding at the beginning but easy overall scenic route. Spring is the best time to take it. A feast for the eyes, soul and body. Standing at the bottom of the waterfull is an unforgettable and refreshing, both figuratively and literally, experience.

Very good trail for hiking. Recommend you to take sun protection cream, hats and water.

Very nice walk. And beautiful view on the top. Beautiful waterfall that can be seen from the bottom and from the top. 2 hours from the car to the top with 2 children and a dog. 1 hour the other way.

Scenic hiking trail.

Well-marked, easy, scenic. You can start from either Zasele village (if you travel by car, for instance) or Gara Bov village. It takes around one hour and a half one direction. What we did is we arrived at Gara Bov by train, from there it took us around one hour and a half to reach Zasele village. The trail is very scenic and I highly recommend you visit in spring when there is more water in the waterfall. On the way back we went from Zasele to Tserovo village via the car road as there is a lovely bench with a view.

The trail is in good condition, with the necessary markings and is suitable for beginners. Takes ~1½ hours depending on the tempo and how many photos you take

Vazova trail is a really nice route. It takes around hour and a half with a normal pace to reach the highest point of the route from the starting point around Station Bov. Most of the route is passing through the forest and you will really enjoy it. After 30 minutes you will reach a very nice place, where you can see the bottom part of the Skaklya waterfall. And when you go on a higher level of the route you will see very beautiful panoramic view of the mountain. I recommend everyone to visit this beautiful place. The best prior of the year to visit it is in April/May.

A great place for hiking! Thera is trail with great views. You can also find here a perfect spots for family picnics.

90mins slow walking to go to the top. Nice nature and beautiful views. Strongly recommend!

The trail is beautiful from the start to the end. It takes around hour and a half from Station Bov to the waterfall. And around one hour to the end of the trail, the village center. There, you can either stop for a meal or continue to the Bula peak. It takes around hour to reach the peak, but it is totally worth it. The view from the top is amazing.

Very beautifull, amazing forest and stunning waterfall! Should visit.

The view is just absolutely incredible. For this reason alone I would start from Gara Bov end and finish at Zasele as it's so much more rewarding that way. There is a picnic area here with a few sheltered benches as well as a vending machine near what looks to be a farm.

nice place near Sofia in Ponor mountain - only a 30 km from Sofia city

Beautiful nature. Breathtaking.

Beautiful, clean and most importantly - breathtaking

A very good trail that is slightly challenging so be prepared for it. There are two ways to go about it. One is to go where this review is posted and you start from Zasele village. This puts you at the top of the trail which means that you will need to go down it and then go up which is harder since you will be exhausted from the trip down. It is very steep so be careful going down.

Also, one very good point to take is that if you start from the bottom of the trail - from village Gara Bov, you will go up the trail first (which is much harder) and then go down on your way back. The kicker with this is that there is a restaurant at the top of the trail at Zasele so you will be able to get water/food, rest and then go down and back to your car.

I recommend you find the other start point in the map which is "Start from Gara Bov".

There is beautiful mountain view and great nature.

Nice view, but very steep. We managed with the kids about 5 years old to get up in 1 hour and 30min.

Picturesque, especially after rainy day before.

Up and down the Vazova trail in Stara Planina
