Dikanya dam

The Dolna Dikanya reservoir sits on the western slope of Verila mountain, regulating the flow of the Arkata River at an elevation of 709 meters.

The construction of the reservoir enhanced agricultural development in the Radomir valley by providing essential irrigation infrastructure for the local farming communities.

The reservoir forms a central gathering point for local fishing enthusiasts who catch various species including carp, perch, walleye, and grass carp throughout the seasons.

Visitors can find accommodation in the villa area on the northern shore, with the site located 16 kilometers from Bobovdol and 34 kilometers from Sofia.

The reservoir connects to a network of eight nearby water bodies within a 60-kilometer radius, creating an extensive system of freshwater resources in western Bulgaria.
