Description

Segment #205 starts from the top of Mt Elin vrah (1546 m) and gets you down to Velingrad (800 m) in less then 5 km.

To get to the starting point you must follow # 250 and #207 if you come riding or take a transfer to the beginning of #207.

The trail is quite steep and the soil is sandy, thus becoming quite slippery during the summer months.

Enroute you can make a short stop to take a look at the ruins of Gradot - dating from the medieval period.

The segment is marked with red triangles.
