Stony hills with bushes and low trees, open pastures and one of the BSPB vulture feeding stations; good place to see also some mediterranean specialities.
The area is composed of a mosaic of different habitats, including stony pastures, small valleys, bushlands and small trees. Here is situated one of the Bulgarian Society for the Protection of Birds' vulture feeding station, which attracts smutsgam, gåsgam and often Black Vulture, kejsarörn, Brun glada, korp and other. sammetshätta, rödstrupig sångare, olivsångare and mästersångare inhabit the bushland, on more open areas isabellastenskvätta and medelhavsstenskvätta can be seen. This is one of the places where berghöna occurs.
On Road 591 you can reach the village of Potochnitsa and from its centre to turn towards East, crossing the village. From the end of Potochnitsa you have to drive on a unpaved road towards the village of Stari Chal. There are several areas to be explored before reaching the little hamlet, after which the road goes uphill. Stop well before the feeding station near the road, to avoid disturbing the scavengers there. Between Potochnitsa and the little hamlet you can see mästersångare and olivsångare, isabellastenskvätta, stenskvätta and medelhavsstenskvätta, fältpiplärka and other. After leaving the car at about 0,5 km before the feeding station, you can explore the bushy area around for rödstrupig sångare, sammetshätta and olivsångare, to observe scavengers and eventually, berghöna and other.
Usually there is a person from BSPB, who guards the area, so you can obtain more information from him. You can get more detailed birding information also from the BSPB Vulture Centre in Madzharovo.
