Weather

Blagoevgrad is among the towns with the highest number of sunny days in Bulgaria. Our climate is warm and pleasant. Summers are warm to hot (35-38C).  Winters are short, mild and almost snowless. The best time to visit Blagoevgrad is during the shoulder months from April – May, and September – October. The town is protected from the cold northern winds due to the natural barrier of the high Rila massifs and the hills near the village of Belo Pole. The mountain breeze, descending from the Rila along the Bistritsa river, cools the air during the summer heat. Thanks to the many mountain forests around the town and the lack of industrial pollutants, the air in Blagoevgrad is clean and fresh. Summer is long and dry, characterized by low rainfall.
