About the Rila Mountains:
Highest peak: Musala - 2925 m.
Rila (Bulgarian: Ðèëà [ˈrilə]) is a mountain range in southwestern
Bulgaria and the highest mountain range of Bulgaria and the Balkans,
with its highest peak being Musala at 2,925 m. The massif is also the
sixth highest mountain in Europe (when each mountain is represented by
its highest peak only), coming after the Caucasus, the Alps, Sierra
Nevada, the Pyrenees and Mount Etna, and the highest between the Alps
and the Caucasus. The larger part of the mountain is occupied by the
Rila National Park.
The name Rila is allegedly of Thracian origin
and is thought to mean "well-watered mountain", owing to Rila's
abundance of glacial lakes (about 200) and hot springs in fault areas at
the base of the mountain. Some of the Balkans' longest and deepest
rivers originate from Rila, including the Maritsa, the Iskar and the
Mesta.
Culturally, Rila is famous for the Rila Monastery,
Bulgaria's largest and most important monastery founded in the 10th
century by Saint John of Rila.
