Katina's Pyramids

These geological formations feature pointed shapes with reddish-brown coloration, rising between 5 to 10 meters high on the southern slopes of the Balkan Mountain.

The natural formations received official protection status through Order No 927 in April 1962, marking their recognition as significant geological structures in Bulgaria.

The pyramids stand as natural landmarks in the Golemiya Dol area, where local residents share stories about the formations through generations.

Located 20 kilometers north of Sofia, the site provides clear paths for visitors to explore the various groups of earth formations throughout the year.

Natural erosion of delluvial soils over millions of years created these pyramid-shaped structures, which continue to transform through environmental processes.
