Fly Over the Seven Rila Lakes by Gyrocopter

🚁 What Makes a Gyrocopter Different

A gyrocopter is not a helicopter and not a small plane. The rotor rotates freely without engine power — it autorotates, which means the aircraft descends safely even in the event of engine failure. This is what makes it one of the safest flying machines in its class. What it adds over a helicopter is manoeuvrability: the pilot has full control over altitude, speed, and angle at all times. You can hang completely motionless above the water, or fly fast and low over the mountain ridge. The passenger decides. The pilot executes.

🏔️ The Route

Take-off from Novi Iskar. The route passes over Pernik, Dolna Dikanya, and Galabovtsi before arriving above the Seven Rila Lakes — the highlight of the flight. Each of the seven lakes has a name that describes it: The Tear, The Eye, The Kidney, The Twin, The Trefoil, The Fish Lake, The Lower Lake. From above, the shapes become visible in a way they never are on foot. The return follows a scenic arc back to Novi Iskar. Total flight time is 2.5 to 3 hours depending on wind conditions.
