The Belogradchik rocks are rock sculptures, situated west of the town of Belogradchik, in the fore hills of the western Balkan mountain range, Northwest Bulgaria. They contain groups of rock figures resembling people, animals, fortresses, pyramids or different objects with imposing sizes - from a few metres to several dozens of metres..

With their red colour they contrast beautifully with the green broadleaf forests below and the lush meadows and small vineyards around the site.

The Belogradchik Rocks have been declared a Natural Landmark by the Bulgarian government and are a major tourist attraction in the region.

The Belogradchik Rocks are included in the list of the 100 national touristic sites.
