The route starts from the hut " Fish Ponds" generally follows the west. Initially the route goes to Smradlivoto (Stinky) Lake - the largest in Bulgaria and on the Balkan peninsula long is 900 meters , width is 260 and 24 deep . Cirque in which it is located is located higher than the Fish Lake ( 2184 m altitude ), it was blocked , which further increases its area.

This is where more extreme part of the route. Walk the barely discernible path that passes through arrays of high squats and crosses lateral rib , descending from Mount Rilets ( 2713 m ) , formerly known as Djendema (this is the name that most local people use today ) . After serious climbing, the route leads to the higher circus , which has one of the most beautiful lakes in Bulgaria - Black ( Karagyol , 2364 m ) .

Although not particularly small in size , it is relatively difficult to detect by novice hikers, which were not in the central parts of the Rila , because it is tightly surrounded by tall pine- arrays on all sides. Once overlooked , however , the visibility of the end point of the route is excellent. Of course, in clear weather .

The climb to the peak Rilets becomes Valley , located west of the ridge , descending from it. Along it are beautiful Dzhendemski seven lakes , each one with a higher altitude and has a larger area . In sunny weather the lakes seem particularly impressive because the surface area and the surrounding bright -colored rocks shine the bright light.

The track was released in the saddle between the peaks Teodosieva Karauli ( 2666 m ) and Rilets . The second end point of the route is the highest in this part of Rila. Rilets part of the mountain lies between the valleys of the rivers Marinkovitsa and Iliyna . The tip is not located on the main ridge , and ridge descending perpendicularly from it. In clear weather Rilets offers stunning views of one of the " labels " of Rila Mountain - Maliovitza share.

Returning to the starting point becomes easily recognizable and marked road descending to the saddle , serving as a boundary between the valleys of the Rila and Iliyna . From Mermerski Preslap hut "Fish ponds " path descends steeply . The transition is not very difficult , but still require some physical preparation and experience in mountaineering .
