Hiking trip from Sinemorets to Silistar beach
Today I will tell about a very picturesque trip that we did with friends this month along the Southern Black Sea coast.
The starting point was the city of Sinemorets. We started the trip from Butamyata beach with @deska89, @nanast and other friends.
The way to the rocks located to the right of the beach, which we had to start climbing, was blocked by an area of water, which is usually not very deep and easy to cross. But this particular day it was deeper and wider than other times, and we had to take off our shoes and step into the water to cross to the other side. Some of our friends got their shoes wet and had to continue barefoot.
We climbed the rocks, followed by a slight ascent, and then came out into a wide and vast area.
More and more beautiful views opened up in front of us and we stopped to admire the beautiful rocks and gorgeous flowers we found on our way.
Veronica chamaedrys:
We passed over Lipite beach.
We found Ant Hills
Raven onion (Ornithogalum refractum) in the sandy surface with lovely long leaves:
We walked on the sand of Lipite beach.
On the beach we found floats, wooden structures, abandoned objects.
We continued on a narrow path ahead to reach new beautiful and imposing rocks.
Besides Muscari on these rocks I found these delicate super miniature yellow flowers.
We went down to Lisicheto beach.
On one of the rocks was a stone statue.
On the rocks I saw these unique cacti.
We continued through the forest to Listi beach, where we rested and ate food we had brought with us.
Our end point was Silistar Beach, but we couldn't find the hiking trail there, so we continued through the forest.
Among the trees, mosses and the sound of fallen leaves, we went out on a forest road that leads to Silistar beach.
There we climbed a high wooden observation deck to look down.
The view was wonderful. The bay is known as one of the most beautiful wild places along the Bulgarian Black Sea.
Here we are at the end point.
Silistar is a protected locality and is located within the boundaries of the "Strandja" nature park.
"Here are the largest surviving white Pontic dunes on our Black Sea coast.
The southernmost deposit of the sand lily in our country is located by Silistar Bay. Lipite Bay, part of the protected area, consists of a curved sandy area, with the sandy strip in direct connection with the forest.
Together with the Veleka River Estuary protected area, the Silistar protected area is included in the list of the most significant wetlands in Bulgaria, with a pronounced importance for the protection of waterfowl. "

A return to the starting point followed, but we decided to go back on other way.
On my way back to the forest I found primroses and more wildflowers.
There were more beautiful views.

Did you know you have your own profile map?
And every post has their own map too!
Want to have your post on the map too?
One of the reasons why I like this community is because of the geography that its content creators show us through the photos and this is an example of that. There is a great quality in the images and the place is also beautiful.
When I want to find out more about the places I show us I look for information and the one of this beach tells me that it is very beautiful, with a kilometer long and it is covered by golden sand. Even in that it is a beauty.
Thank you very much for sharing these wonders.
It is seen that you enjoyed the walk and those who got wet shoes appreciated it.
Happy day.
Cheers and greetings
I am glad that you enjoyed the trip. Thank you! Have a wonderful day @tonyes.
I didn't know this place. It seems so lovely, and colors are wonderful :)
The thing I loved most in this article, though, is you care with details. You focused on little details, anthills, so many different flowers... it really gave me the impression that I was there, and shows how deep you lived your experience.
Thank you for showing these places.
Hugs from Sardinia, Italy :)
I am glad that you have immersed yourself in the atmosphere of this wonderful place. Thank you for the comment. Have a wonderful day @alecaltab.
I did, yes :)
I have a question: I checked the map and I saw this place is in the south. Is it easy to arrive here with bus and train? From Sofia, for example?
Also, I have to come back to Istanbul sooner or later.
Do you know if it's possible to go to Istanbul from here?
I would like to include this seaplace in a future road trip :)
In the summer season, it is easier to make this trip, as the buses to Sinemorets are much less frequent during this season.
From Sofia you can travel to the city of Burgas by bus or train. From Burgas you will catch a bus to Sinemorets and you are there.
For traveling from Sinemorets to Istanbul, I guess there will be a bus, but during the summer season.
You gotta love those hikes that offer you the view of infinity! So sad we don't have similar spots in my country as I'd definitely take those hikes once every time in a while. But that's a good reminder that I should book my next trip to a country that offers such stunning views to satisfy my curiosity and adventure seeker spirit :)
I adore such trips and I am happy that Bulgaria is so rich in natural beauties. It would be great for you to take more trips like this if you like adventure 😍👍.
Looks absolutely amazing! The stunning views and diverse flora along the Black sea coast make it an impressive adventure.
This trip was a real adventure. The nature around the Black Sea is truly stunning. I'm glad you liked it 🙂
