Zagaza hut, Mountain hut in Kresna Municipality, Bulgaria.
Zagaza hut sits at 1,390 meters (4,560 feet) elevation on the right bank of the Mostishka River in the northern Pirin Mountains. The three-story building holds 14 rooms for 63 guests total, with electricity, water, indoor bathrooms, hot water, and a dining room.
The building started as a forestry structure serving the timber administration in the area. A complete renovation in 2010 transformed it into a modern tourist refuge.
The hut serves as a gathering place for hikers and nature lovers exploring this mountain area. It functions as a key stop for visitors seeking to discover the Pirin range and its trails.
The hut sits within reach of several hiking trails and offers good conditions for day trips into the mountain region. The outdoor area with barbecue facilities works well for relaxing after a hike.
One remarkable feature is its proximity to Albutin Peak, which offers wide views across the mountain landscape. Visitors can quickly set out on several trails from here without needing long travel times.
