Polkovnik Serafimovo is a picturesque mountain village in the Rhodopes, situated in a beautiful valley at an average altitude of around 900 metres.

The village is approximately 7 km from Smolyan and 20 km from Pamporovo, providing a particularly useful combination of peaceful rural surroundings and access to established mountain tourism infrastructure.

The area is known for its clean mountain air, beautiful scenery and relatively cool summers, while the changing seasons give the area a distinctive character throughout the year. The municipality notes that the village has attracted both Bulgarian and foreign residents, including a significant British community.

Several small rivers run through the area before joining the nearby Arda River, and the local countryside includes small waterfalls, natural pools and numerous mountain springs.

The wider Smolyan region offers opportunities for:

• cycling

• fishing

• skiing and snowboarding

• wildlife and nature tourism
