Kaylaka Park
A scenic nature park with a canyon, lakes and sheer cliffs — the favourite getaway of Pleven's residents.
Kaylaka Park is one of the most beautiful nature parks in Bulgaria, set in the picturesque canyon of the Tuchenitsa River, a few kilometres south of the centre of Pleven.
The sheer cliffs, the lakes and the dense vegetation create striking landscapes in every season — a place loved by Pleven's residents and the city's visitors alike.
The park offers numerous walking trails, picnic spots, sports and children's playgrounds, as well as quiet places to relax amid nature.
Hidden among the greenery are historical and archaeological traces, as well as distinctive rock formations that add extra charm to the walk.
During the warm months the park is a favoured spot for walks, sports and family outings, while in autumn the colours of the canyon make it especially scenic.
There are eateries and rest areas on the grounds, along with opportunities for waterside walks — convenient for spending half a day or a full one.
Easily reached by car or taxi from Hotel Rostov, Kaylaka is the perfect escape into nature, just minutes from the centre.
