Wiszegrad

The Wiszegrad peak rises to 856 meters above sea level, marking the highest point of the Sakar mountain range in southeastern Bulgaria.

The geological formation of Wiszegrad dates back to the late Jurassic and early Cretaceous periods when tectonic movements shaped the Sakar mountain range.

The mountain region sustains traditional wine production methods, with local vineyards cultivating grapes according to techniques passed through generations.

Hikers can reach the summit through marked trails starting from Topolovgrad, following established routes that require moderate physical preparation.

The peak serves as a natural observation point for studying endangered birds of prey, particularly the lesser kestrel population in the surrounding territory.
