Hiking 260km on The Five Mountains Trail E4 in Bulgaria

[@jimmythelurkey]

This deserves more views

[@luboyanev]

Thank you, I am happy with it's reach so far, but if more people can watch it and get inspired by it, even better :) Cheers!

[@DanBecker]

This was SO GOOD! Great job on the video! I would LOVE to hike there some day.

[@luboyanev]

Thank you for your comment Dan! I'm glad that my video reached to you, and I hope you will get the chance to hike through those not very well known mountains in Bulgaria one day :) And in the meantime, there is a fresh new upload, now from the well known Dolomites. A different experience with a lot more infrastructure (and thus more people as well), but also huge iconic peaks.. :)

[@wtn]

Beautiful Bulgarian nature ! Wonderful views! Excellent filming! I liked and subscribed, see you...

[@luboyanev]

Thank you, Enjoy your summer!

[@LucasP1993]

Beautiful video Lyubo! After seeing this video, I decided to also hike the whole Bulgarian section of the E4 this summer. It was so worth it! Greets from Belgium!

[@luboyanev]

Oh wow! I'm glad to hear that it inspired you, and that you also had a great experience in these beautiful mountains!!

[@v.n.2039]

What a beautiful landscape. 💪👏👍🏻 Greetings from Switzerland!

[@luboyanev]

Thank you! So much beautiful scenery in Switzerland as well!

[@BBQDad463]

My ancestors came to the USA from Eastern Europe roughly 110 to 130 years ago. I did not know that my ancestral homelands held such beauty. Truly this was a beautiful trek. Perhaps, some day, I could hike there, if I can first find the Fountain of Youth. Thank you for sharing this video.

[@luboyanev]

Thank you for watching! So many incredible places around here! Nature for me is what makes this place so special, I hope you will get the chance to visit one day!

[@viktordzhorgov]

Чудесен филм! Уловил си магията на планините по най-добрия начин. С това видео ще мотивираш много хора, да видят тази красота със собствените си очи и да изживеят това приключение! Успех!

[@luboyanev]

Благодаря Викторе, надявам се и аз също видеото да вдъхнови хората да видят красотите в планините ни и да се грижат за запазването на природата. Поздрави :)

[@fujifatbike5793]

Aaaaahhhh....Bulgaria is such a beautiful country! The landscape is so diverse with mountainous peeks, deep valleys, lakes and plateaus. It reminds me of Patagonia, except for the huts though. What a beautiful and inspiring hike. Thank you for sharing your adventures. Much respect!

[@luboyanev]

Thank you! Yeah, its a beautiful place and unique in its own way, Happy hiking!

[@CrazyHikers]

The views, trails, scenery is just incredible. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@luboyanev]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I grew up by Rila mountain, but I was also happily surprised with the beauty the rest of the E4 in Bulgaria provided. I hope you will get a chance to visit the Bulgarian mountains again. Happy hiking!

[@luboyanev]

Hehe, I am glad you enjoyed it, I can see you know a few words to help you on a trip to Bulgaria :) Enjoy your summer

[@fatundi]

Толкова много имах нуждата да видя това видео! Прекрасно е. На места направо ми се напълниха очите със сълзи от красотата и някак бе толкова естествено и хубаво заснето и преразказано цялото преживяване, че се почувствах сякаш и аз съм там. Чудесна работа. Ще следя с удоволствие видеата! :)

[@luboyanev]

Благодаря за хубавия коментар Фати! Радвам се че е видеото е имало такъв ефект. Като е по наште планини човек как да не се постарае малко повече да направи нещо хубаво за гледане :) Поздрави и весело лято!

[@harsimran9888]

Pretty sure that after a year or two this will surely hit million+ views!

[@luboyanev]

Hehe, thank you! It's all in the hands of the KZbin algorithm :) And in the meantime there is a fresh new upload from a new hike 😋

Thank you :)

[@rusenkaraca]

Lyubo --The trail looks awesome! Born and spent my childhood in Bulgaria, I'll definitely want to walk this trail in the upcoming season.

[@luboyanev]

Hey! You're right, we have some incredible nature in Bulgaria, and if you can still read and speak the language it may be helpful for navigating through the route.. I hope you will get the chance to hike it, cheers!

New to this channel and am hooked! Thanks for taking us along. Texas doesn’t have mountains like this.

[@luboyanev]

Thank you! I am glad I could take you along and that it was enjoyable to watch :) Yes Texas might not be the most mountainous place, but the US has some truly incredible nature, can't wait to get back on those trails again :) Cheers!

[@Thiago_Benedicto]

I'll thank you again for sharing the subtitles! Make a video for an hour about the equipment you used and something that everyone loves to see too! May the pandemic allow you to make more videos like this! They are amazing! Thanks for sharing. Thanks from Brazil.

[@luboyanev]

Thank you again for commenting, and I might make a gear video after the next hike. And I do plan on going on another hike, so hopefully there should be another hiking documentary coming some time in the future (most likely to be released in the fall or winter). Cheers!

[@Iron-Outdoor]

Wauw, i did not know these mountains are so beautiful! I really like your videos, thanks for sharing your journeys!

Прекрасное путешествие, очень много красивых мест. Мое желание походить по горам Болгарии становится все больше👍 Надеюсь, что все у меня получится🙏

[@luboyanev]

Спасибо! Thank you, I hope you get a chance to visit some of these places!

[@andrelevent7969]

Посетите Велико Тырново, Рилский монастырь, и сами горы Родопы. Сам не смог, был проездом, но горы вокруг старой столицы Болгарии очаровали.

[@andrelevent7969]

" Не выходи из комнаты, не совершай ошибку, зачем тебе солнце, если ты куришь "Шипку"..." ( это из Бродского ). А "Шипка" и "Родопи" - марки болгарских сигарет ( к слову, сам не курю - пусть моё здоровье заберут горы. )

[@Atma_eos]

Hey very nice video, is there a app where you find the Water?

[@luboyanev]

Thank you. What I used to find water was a combination of two things. One was the guidebook for the trail (there is a version of the book in Bulgarian and in English) and inside it were described where slightly longer waterless stretches were and where the last places to fill up on water were. And the second option I used was an offline topographical map with GPX track on my phone that I could use both for navigation as well as seeing where there might be water sources. Hope that helps. Cheers
