Yakovtsi by the Jovkovtsi Reservoir

Yakovtsi is located in the Elena Balkan on the shore of the Jovkovtsi Reservoir. The reservoir was created on the Veselina River in Elena Municipality. This distinguishes the village’s location from the waterway: Yakovtsi is situated on the reservoir shore, while the Veselina is the river on which the reservoir was created. Shilkovtsi is also associated with the Jovkovtsi Reservoir; Yakovtsi itself lies on its shore.

By the water: the location of individual houses

Popskata Kashta is 50 metres from the shore of the Jovkovtsi Reservoir; Hancho Yakovtsi is right next to the reservoir. Both details indicate proximity to the water, but differ in precision: a distance from the shore is given for Popskata, while Hancho is described as being next to the reservoir. If being close to the water matters to you, compare these specific details with the description of the house you are considering.

Cycling around Yakovtsi

A cycling route south of the Jovkovtsi Reservoir reaches Yakovtsi at point 33, after 48.0 kilometres along the route. This point places the village on a specific route; the kilometre figure refers to the route, not to the distance from an accommodation. Popskata Kashta offers bicycles for rides in the surrounding area. These details answer different planning questions: the route shows where Yakovtsi lies along its course, while the bicycles are for rides around the house. As route conditions can change, check the route before your trip.
