Sur certaines étapes, on pourra vous proposer des alternatives (randonnées plus longues ou plus courtes que celles prévues). FORMALITE ET SANTE • Formalités spécifiques Se reporter à la fiche technique pays. • Passeport Carte nationale d’identité ou passeport en cours de validité pour les citoyens français (pour les autres nationalités se renseigner auprès du consulat ou de l'ambassade). Si vous voyagez avec vos enfants sachez que, dorénavant, les mineurs, quel que soit leur âge, doivent eux aussi avoir une carte d'identité individuelle ou un passeport individuel. Toutefois, si l’enfant, de moins de quinze ans, est porté sur votre passeport délivré avant le 12 juin 2006, cette inscription est valable jusqu’au terme de la validité du passeport. Un mineur voyageant seul n´a pas besoin d´autorisation de sortie du territoire s´il a un passeport individuel. En revanche, s´il voyage seul avec une simple carte d´identité, il devra également être muni d'une autorisation de sortie du territoire, que les Parisiens pourront obtenir auprès de la préfecture de police ou de l´antenne de police administrative de l´arrondissement de résidence ; en province, on s´adressera à la mairie dont dépend son domicile.

L'utilisation d'un tire- tique permettra l'extraction complète de l’insecte. La prise d'antibiotique (Doxycycline) n'est justifiée qu’en cas de morsure inflammatoire. • Prévention Paludisme Il est totalement absent. • Autres risques Si, comme dans tous les pays d'Europe, le voyageur n'est pas exposé aux risques sanitaires "exotiques", les risques comportementaux ou environnementaux peuvent être les mêmes qu'ailleurs. • Informations pratiques Les infrastructures sanitaires sont, bien sûr, satisfaisantes partout, mais le coût des soins dans certaines structures privées nécessite de vérifier toutes les clauses du contrat d´assurance–assistance souscrit avant le départ. PAYS ET CLIMAT • Climat La Bulgarie est située sur la même longitude que la partie Sud de la France. Eloignée de l’influence de l’océan Atlantique, elle bénéficie d’un climat continental assez caractéristique. Des hivers froids et des étés très chauds, avec cependant des particularités locales dues à la présence des montagnes. Sur la mer Noire, la saison balnéaire va de juin à septembre. Température moyenne de 26°C avec de rares précipitations. A l'intérieur du pays, les rosiers de la vallée du même nom fleurissent de la mi-mai à la mi-juin. Le temps est doux et ensoleillé avec une température moyenne de 22°C. L'été est chaud et sec en plaine avec parfois de violents orages et une température moyenne de 25°C ; plus frais en montagne, température moyenne 20°C. Dès novembre, les températures chutent au alentour de 10°C. De décembre à février, il fait froid et nuageux et l'hiver est rigoureux et enneigé dans les montagnes ce qui explique la présence de nombreuses stations de ski. VOTRE VOYAGE • Caractéristiques du circuit Temps de marche : de 2h30 à 4h30 de marche par jour. Altitude maximum de passage : 2500 mètres. Difficultés particulières : aucune.

For centuries, mountain dwellers – shepherds, cowherds, goatherds, loggers and the like – have satisfi ed their needs for food, animal hides and other basics from the numerous herds of grazing livestock. The domestica- ted goat is not just a lovable creature out of a fairy tale; for many centuries it has been a staple in every Bulgarian household. Its gifts are part of our daily life and lore to this day: milk, cheese, skins, goatskin rugs, topcoats, even mummers’ costumes.

If your answer is 'yes,' keep on reading. If it is 'not,' skip the next paragraph. So, you have an automobile, which is very likely to be used at least once a week in the Sofia downtown, where most of the government institutions, tax offices, banks, and other important businesses are located. Don't you think that getting around the downtown area has been becoming increasingly difficult? Sofia Mayor Boyko Borissov seems to agree with you. He gave us an inter- view (see Page 24), in which he explains that once the construction of Sofia Metropolitan is completed, the access to the city center will be regulated by a fee. But how long will the metro construction last? Four, five, or more years? By then, our nerves will be so frayed that most of us will have left Sofia for some other, better organized European capital.
