Description
The oldest name of the mountain is "Dounkas", given to it by the Thracians. It means a
place with a lot of water. Thracian is it's other name Roula, which was altered by the
Slav to Rila. There are claimed to be 140 lakes in the Rila, and have given the
mountains their name. "Rila" is an ancient Thracian word meaning "mountain full of
water". Few ranges in Europe have so many rugged peaks; 132 peaks over 6500 feet
and 78 peaks over 8000 feet. The highest is Musala (2925 m - 9397ft), the highest in
south-east Europe.
