Wonderful Bridges

Among the thickets of the Rhodope Mountains, less than an hour's drive from Grand Hotel Murgavec, you will discover one of the most impressive natural wonders in Bulgaria — The Miraculous Bridges. This majestic rock arch not only captivates with its beauty and scale, but also brings a sense of mysticism, silence and connection with the ancient legends of the mountain.

What to Expect When Visiting the Wonder Bridges

The marvelous bridges represent two huge marble arches sculpted from the water of the Ercupria River over the millennia. The first, larger bridge is about 96 meters long and over 40 meters high, while the second — smaller, is no less impressive with its tunnel passages and cave niches. The place is immersed in a cool forest, with summer here bringing freshness and tranquility, and in autumn the colors are amazing.

Walking among the rocks awakens all the senses — you will hear the whisper of the wind, feel the coolness of the stone and enjoy views that remain forever in the heart. For lovers of photography and nature, this is a real paradise.

The hidden treasures of the area

The surroundings hide other small wonders — mysterious forest paths, colorful meadows, and if you are lucky, you may also encounter wild animals. Near the Miracle Bridges there are wooden gazebos for picnics and places for a short rest under the shadows of centuries-old fir trees.

Practical advice for your visit

• Best time to visit:Spring and early autumn are best suited — the temperatures are pleasant and the nature is amazingly beautiful.
• How to get from Grand Hotel Murgavets:The wonderful bridges are located about 47 km from Pamporovo — it is convenient to travel by car through Shiroka Luka and the village of Zabardo. From Zabardo there is a well-marked road and parking near the natural phenomenon. For adventure lovers, there is also the opportunity to combine the trip with a short transition.
• What to wear:Comfortable hiking shoes, a light jacket (even in summer), water and a small snack. The camera is almost mandatory!
• Attention:Paths around bridges can be slippery — be cautious, especially after rain.

The feeling of being there

Many guests say that visiting the Wonder Bridges is one of their most exciting experiences in the Rhodope Mountains. From under the arches there is a view that remains forever — imposing rock walls, greenery and the feeling that time has stopped. The silence is interrupted only by the sounds of the forest and the river, and the air is crystal clear.
