The foundation of mountain biking, as a sport in the destination Bansko – Razlog- Dobrinishte is placed in 2009. by a group of English men headed by James Hughes. They set up a non-governmental organization and began working with the Pirin National Park Directorate and the municipalities of Razlog valley for the legal validation of mountain biking marches to enter the territory of the national park. The goal is to create new opportunities for summer tourism and to support the local business, which is open all year round. To date, the Organization has marked 200 km. mountain biking routes that reach anywhere in the Razlog Valley and are unfolding not only in the Pirin, but also in the Rila.
A free guided tour is organized for all-mountain biking enthusiasts. The route is selected on the spot, according to the level of the participants, and lasts 3-4 hours. Bike rental options are available upon request.
