Special Train Carries Hundreds of Tourists to Beautiful Rhodope Corners

Over the past weekend, May 23 and 24, hundreds of railway tourism enthusiasts traveled to the Rhodopes aboard special tourist trains operated by BDZ. They traveled along the scenic route between Dimitrovgrad and Momchilgrad and attracted great interest, with all seats booked out on both public holidays.

Approximately 400 passengers took advantage of the organized trip, which brought the mountain’s beauty to life, focusing not only on transportation but also on shared experiences of the incredible nature.

On the route, special stops were made for photo breaks at two of the most attractive locations:

• Stop "Sredna Arda"
• Stop "Momina Skala"

These spots were chosen intentionally – they are located near Bulgaria's longest cable-stayed pedestrian bridge, offering photographers and nature lovers the chance to capture unique shots of the Rhodopes.

The organizers ensured a festive atmosphere throughout the entire journey. Passengers were greeted with festive programs both when departing from Dimitrovgrad station and upon arrival in Momchilgrad.

This initiative by Bulgarian State Railways highlighted the potential of railway tourism in the country and demonstrated that train trips are increasingly gaining supporters and nature enthusiasts.
