Looking for an easy hike near the Rila monastery? You found it. The rather flat old path used to be one of the first connections between Blagoevgrad, Macedonia hut and the Monastery. There is a small eco hotel at the Vladichina meadow (search facebook for Вила Владичина поляна - Рилски манастир). It is possible to continue beyond the indicated trail.
