Malyovitsa
(Bulgarian: Мальовица) is a peak in the northwestern part of the Rila Mountain in southwestern
Bulgaria. It is 2,729 m (8,953 ft) high. The Malyovitsa region is the cradle of
Bulgarian rock climbing and mountaineering. The imposant north wall of the
summit was first climbed in August 23, 1938 by Konstantin
Savadzhiev and Georgi Stoimenov.
