(See the location of the campsites on the maps at the end of this article)
Kamping Kromidovo: This campsite is near Bulgaria's borders with Greece and Macedonia. You may be interested (and would be advised) to read our opinion of the site (with pictures) after we made a visit in November 2017: Kamping Kromidovo Reviewed.
All information about the
campsites has been gathered from a variety of web sites in English, Bulgarian, German but mostly Dutch.Translated
using Google.Descriptions are accurate,
I hope, but the GPS'
on their website makes my effort seem rather small but hopefully helpful.We went to the magnificent Rila Monastery in
2010.
We shall return to Bulgaria !
