The lower parts of the Balkan Mountains close to the town of Teteven offer different trails connecting the villages Golyam Izvor - Brusen - Cherni Vit and Glozhene Monastery. On these four days riding we have chosen routes, where we spend 4-5 hours in the saddle each day allowing some trotting and cantering at a faster pace.
This ride is recommended for riders who are confident and in control on a forward going horse at a steady canter in the open over uneven ground. And have ridden for a number of years. Another highlight of this intense itinerary is the visit to Saeva Dupka cave – a fascinating limestone cave where nature has shaped impressive formations over thousands of years.An optional tour to Etropole Monastery can be arranged after the ride on day 4.
Highlights:
♦ The Glozhene Monastery „St. George“ - founded in XIII century, it is situated on an extremely scenic place, perched on high cliffs from where a spectacular view is revealed. Vasil Levski - the Apostle of Freedom - found refuge in it in Turkish times.
♦ Etropole Monastery (optional) - the monastery was founded in the XII century. It declined after the conquest by the Turks but at the end of XVI century it was restored and became one of the most important spiritual centers in Bulgaria. The surrounding area of the monastery offers pleasant pastoral scenery and in immediate proximity to the monastery the Varovitets waterfall is located.
♦ Saeva Dupka cave - one of the most beautiful Bulgarian caves. It is 205 meters long and over one million year old. Its five halls and numerous galleries are full of bizarre cave formations. It is illuminated and urbanized.

A Cameroon tour delivers more variety in one country than most African itineraries manage across three. Rainforest, volcanic peaks, Sahel savannah, Atlantic beaches and more than 250 ethnic groups sit within a single set of borders - which is why geographers have long called Cameroon "Africa in miniature". It is also one of the continent's least visited destinations, so the crowds you...

A Mozambique tour swaps the safari-vehicle crowds for something rarer: 2,500 kilometres of Indian Ocean coastline, coral reefs that rank among the healthiest in Africa, and an Afro-Portuguese culture you will not find anywhere else on the continent. This is a beach-and-culture destination first, a wildlife one second - and that is exactly why it appeals to travellers who have already ticked off...
