Overview

No other experience near Sofia combines professional foraging, wild food identification, and a gourmet forest lunch cooked from what you find. Dobrin's encyclopedic knowledge of Bulgaria's flora and fungi — built over a lifetime — is the product. The forest is simply his kitchen. Every season brings different ingredients, different discoveries, and a completely different meal. This is not a tour. It is a day you will describe to people for years.

Lozen Mountain

Walk into ancient Bulgarian forest with Dobrin — mycologist, forager, and one of Bulgaria's most knowledgeable naturalists — and spend a full day discovering what the forest is hiding. Wild mushrooms, medicinal herbs, edible plants, orchids, and fungi you have never seen before. Then sit down in the forest and eat it all.Dobrin cooks the foraged ingredients into a gourmet lunch on the spot — polenta with wild mushrooms and homemade goat cheese, bread with his own herb seasoning, wild garlic pesto. The forest decides the menu. Every visit is different.The location changes with the season — Lozen Mountain in autumn for peak mushroom season, Vitosha in spring and summer for wildflowers and herbs. Many guests return for both.Solo travellers are warmly welcomed , small groups of max. 8 people. Hotel pickup and return included. Suitable for all ages and fitness levels — guests from 8 to 75 have joined Dobrin in the forest.
