Acknowledgements

I would like to express my gratitude to all those who have helped with this project, in particular all the members of my family who have once again provided essential encouragement and support. I would also like to offer special thanks to Mihaela Yordanova, Siya Cholakova, Svetlana Drumeva and Svetoslava Toncheva, who have accompanied me on some of the walks and patiently posed as ‘foreground interest’ in many of the photos! Two other people who deserve my thanks are Kalina Petrova for helping check current bus schedules to and from the mountains, and Milen Marinov, for his expert advice and comments on the dragonfly fauna of the Bulgarian national parks.

Warning

Mountain walking can be a dangerous activity carrying a risk of personal injury or death. It should be undertaken only by those with a full understanding of the risks and with the training and/or experience to evaluate them. While every care and effort has been taken in the preparation of this guide, the user should be aware that conditions can be highly variable and can change quickly, materially affecting the seriousness of a mountain walk.

Therefore, except for any liability that cannot be excluded by law, neither Cicerone nor the author accepts liability for damage of any nature (including damage to property, personal injury or death) arising directly or indirectly from the information in this book.

To call out the Mountain Rescue, ring 999 or the international emergency number 112: this will connect you via any available network. Once connected to the emergency operator, ask for the police.
