We spent more than half a day wandering across this beautiful park. There are many hiking trails, all well marked, some of them starting from the "Kyoshkovete" park. We also started there and followed a couple of trails, making a full huge circulation, and coming back to the "Kyoshkovete". The first trail passed a couple of places with wooden, rougly nailed tables and benches, made by tourist enthusiasts, where everyone can have some rest or a snack, if has brought some with him. You can't get lost because, as I have mentioned above, the trails are very well marked and all you need is just follow the signs. Along the trails, there are some signboards (unfortunately, along with the info boards about the flora and fauna in the area, scattered along the route, they are in Bulgarian only), pointing to the direction of distinctive entities, either natural or man-made, such as the "Rusalka" cave, "Biserna" cave, the uncompleted residence of the quondam Communist leader of Bulgaria - Todor Zhivkov, the Devil's pass, the Shumen Fortress, etc. Another trail led us from the Rusalka cave to a junction of trails, one of which heading to the Shumen Fortress and the other one going to the Biserna cave (a.k.a. Zandana - a Turkish word meaning "dungeon") and back to town. Great views of the town of Shumen open from the top of the plateau. Hiking the plateau is the perfect outdoor activity. The trails do not require a high state of physical fitness but some of them, in certain sections, are quite steep, and while descending is fine (avoid the dry tree leafs on the ground as those are really slippery), ascending would be a challenge for some people.

The 1300-year-old monument was built for the jubilee anniversary of the establishment of one of the most ancient states in the world - Bulgarians. From there, such a view opens up not only to the city itself but also to the incredible views. From the very plateau you can descend with a hang glider, with which you can see these amazing bird's eye views.

One of the few so well preserved ancient historical places in Bulgaria, representing different periods from the European culture - ancient, Roman and Medieval. There is a small museum on-site, excellently organized. Very kind museum officials both at the outer and inner area. The view towards Shumen is impressive!
