Sliven's Blue Rocks

A cliff plateau above Sliven, reached by cable car.

The Sinite Kamani — Blue Rocks — are a nature park of grey-blue cliffs and beech forest above Sliven, with a cable car from the edge of town and marked paths along the top.

It is the furthest trip on this page and the one that changes the scenery most: mountains, meadows and a thousand metres of altitude, ninety minutes from the beach.
