Apriltsi (Bulgarian:Априлци[ɐˈpriɫt͡si]) is a small town inLovech Province, Central-NorthBulgaria, located in the vicinity of the highest part ofStara Planina mountain. It is the administrative centre of the homonymousApriltsi Municipality. As of December 2009, the town had a population of 3,318.[1]
Due to its favourable location in a valley at the foot ofBotev Peak in theBalkan Mountains, Apriltsi is a newly developing tourist resort in the region. Besides Botev, notable peaks in the area are Triglav and Maragidik.
The town was founded by the merging of four large mountain villages: Novo Selo, Zla Reka, Vidima, and Ostrets, which are today the town's neighbourhoods. Due to this, it has a rather rural appearance with some 19th-century Bulgarian houses preserved.
