Midžor, Mountain summit on Bulgaria-Serbia border

Midžor summit reaches an elevation of 2169 meters within the Balkan Mountains, featuring rocky slopes on the northern side and grassy terrain elsewhere.

The mountain served as a natural boundary marker between Bulgaria and Serbia, with restricted access until the early 1990s due to its border location.

The peak bears different names in Bulgarian and Serbian languages, reflecting the multicultural nature of this geographical landmark between two Balkan nations.

Access points include the village of Chuprene with a 17-kilometer dirt road route and a 9-kilometer foot track through the reserve.

The Chuprene biosphere reserve at the base of Midžor contains one of Bulgaria's last remaining nesting grounds for Capercaillie birds.

Location: Chuprene Municipality

Elevation above the sea: 2,169 m
