Manastirishte in October, 2023

After the two days of hiking during the week we thought of opting for a leisurely walk in Vrana park on the weekend. However, the park was closed for the public because of some festival taking place there at night, the day was too gorgeous to be spent at home, so we packed our backpacks and went for a short hike on Manastirishte - our go-to destination, when we want a short nice walk without preparation.

Hike info:

Destination: peak Manastirishte (1338 m)

Mountain: Plana

Total length: 7.5 km

Elevation gain: 160 m

Total duration (plus picnic and rests): 2 h 30 min

Average difficulty: 1 / 10 

As usual, the track was lonely and quiet, sunny and super relaxing.

Me-made items, worn on this hike:

Husband: boxers

I: lingerie, Sabrina Slims II

We had our picnic lunch on the hill, overlooking the fields above the village of Plana, drinking our cold beers and basking in the warm October sun. We've never had such a gorgeous October, I can't stop smiling and feeling happy with such a weather outside.
