Varshets

Varshets Resort is a balneological centre in Bulgaria and is of national significance. It is the biggest one in Northeastern Bulgaria. It is situated 18 km to the southeast of Berkovitsa, situated in a small valley, surrounded to the south by the main ridge of Stara Planina and to the east by the Vratsa Balkan. Since 1860 its thermal waters (temperature from 32.6° to 36.4°С) are used for healing rheumatic, cardiovascular, gastric-intestinal, nerve and other diseases. There is a great number of sanatoriums, holiday houses, villas. Marius Hotel (126, Republika Blvd., tel.: 09527 2109, tel./fax: 09527 3034) works, too. One could rent private lodgings.

The mineral water of the natural springs in Varshets is clear, colorless and odorless. The hypotonic properties of the water, the low fluorine content, its softness and almost uniform temperature are the main reason for its curative qualities.

Beside all this Varshets is a resort with fantastic nature and scenery, and it is highly recommended to visit this village.
