Bansko - Yavorov

At the western edge of Bansko, near a campsite, a path leads into the fields - unfortunately, there is no marking or signpost at this point, so it is best to navigate using GPS. Later on, there are several markings to help orient yourself at various forked paths. You then reach the Bansko golf course, which you bypass on the south side (always stay close to the golf course fence) and then arrive at a district of Razlog. A short distance left along the road to the town exit. Shortly after, a signpost points to the memorial for the victims who died in the crash of a firefighting aircraft during a forest fire operation. Here you should still stay on the road - about 300 m later, turn left onto a yellow-marked path. This initially ascends gently through terrain with low vegetation, then steeply upwards through the forest. Occasionally you come onto a forest road - be careful at one point (with a picnic table) where the path leaves the forest road: the left path may appear larger at first, but the right one is correct. There are numerous shortcuts following this - you should always stay on the official path. It is clearly recognizable by numerous signposts.
