Lakes Muratovo and Ribno

We did a very pretty hike this weekend – from Vihren Hut to Muratovo and Ribno lakes.

There’s a path that connects both lakes, and I think it’s easier to find if you visit Muratovo lake first. The connection between the two lakes is not marked but the path is obvious. There’s really no other path you can take in the general direction of Ribno starting from Muratovo.

Vrom Vihren hut to Muratovo is about 1-1.5h and +260 meters. I found 45 min as an estimation online but that would require the hikers to be in a very good shape.

Lake Muratovo is small but exceptionally scenic.

The Ribno lake (Fish Lake) is much larger. Despite the name, tiny fish, likely trout, can be found in most lakes in the area, not only the Fish Lake.

The whole loop Vihren Hut – Muratovo Lake – Ribno Lake – Vihren Hut took us about 4h and only about 13K steps.
