It can be said that Bulgaria is a mountainous country; nearly one-third of the territory is occupied by mountains. Looking south from Apriltsi, here again is the uniquely shaped and beautiful mount Maragidik and Botev peak. At 2376 meters above sea level, Botev is the highest peak of the Balkan Mountains and almost in the geographical center of Bulgaria.
