Kayaking on Dospat Reservoir

2 Days - 1 Night
21 - 22 June 2025
Dospat dam
Organized or own transport

For kayak and mountain lovers, Dospat Reservoir is the perfect destination. Located in the western part of the Rhodope Mountains at an altitude of 1200 m, it ranks among the largest in Bulgaria in terms of area and volume. For those who simply love nature and peaceful spots, this place will offer a new meaning to the word "tranquility."

The tour of the reservoir is not strenuous, and we will stop for breaks and a picnic amid centuries-old pine forests. If anyone wishes, they can bring a hammock. Once we return to the camp, there will be time for a walk, fishing, or relaxation. The day ends by the BBQ with delicious treats or at a local restaurant to taste the fish specialties.

The program is suitable for beginners and children over 10 years old.

Join us for a Rhodope EPIC weekend!
