Mud, hills and a lot of grinning

This is the activity our guests book most, and the one that gets the loudest reviews. Thirty minutes outside Sofia the city disappears: forest tracks, steep climbs, muddy descents and ridges with views over the Balkan range. You drive your own quad the whole way, with a guide in front setting the pace.

If you've never ridden anything with an engine, don't worry. The Can-Ams are automatic and very stable. After the briefing and five minutes on the trail, almost everyone relaxes and starts enjoying it.

What to expect on the day

Pickup or drive. We can collect you from your hotel (€60 round trip for up to 4, €120 for up to 8), or you drive to the base and park for free. Arrive 15 to 20 minutes early.

Briefing and gear. Helmet, goggles, protective gear and a short safety talk. You get to know the machine before you leave the base.

The ride. 60 or 90 minutes of forest trails, climbs, mud and viewpoints, with stops for photos. The guide adjusts the route to the group.

Back to Sofia. The whole thing takes about half a day including transfers, so it fits easily before lunch or an evening out.

What to wear

Clothes you're happy to get muddy, because you will, and closed shoes. A light jacket in spring and autumn. Everything protective is provided. Light rain and mud usually make the ride better. If conditions are genuinely unsafe, the ride is rescheduled or refunded.
