Murgash Peak, Mountain summit in Sofia Province, Bulgaria

Murgash Peak is the highest summit of the Murgash division of the Western Balkan Mountains, rising to 1,687 meters in the eastern part of the massif. It has a dome-like form with steep slopes and is built from Paleozoic rocks. The Eleshnitsa and Batuliyska rivers rise at its foot.

The summit's weather station dates from 1953 and has operated continuously since then. It was built to record conditions at 1,687 m in the western Balkan Mountains, and its long series of readings supports climate monitoring for the region.

The peak gives its name to the Murgash division of the Western Balkan Mountains. The Eleshnitsa and Batuliyska rivers rise at its foot, and the Eleshnishki Monastery lies at the southern base, a landmark for walkers on the approaches.

The mountain is reached by marked hiking trails that approach from various directions. A mountain hut situated at 1,490 meters southwest of the summit provides shelter and serves as a useful reference point for hikers.

The meteorological station built on the summit in 1953 still operates, making the peak a working observation point rather than only a hiking destination. The hut Murgash stands at 1,490 m to the southwest, and the Eleshnishki Monastery lies at the southern foot of the mountain.
