The awards in the "Hut of the Year" competition, a joint initiative of 360Mag magazine and the Bulgarian Tourist Union, were presented at a ceremony in the Cinema House in Sofia. More than 100 mountain lodges and shelters from all regions of the country participated in the campaign. The prize fund of nearly 33,000 euros was provided by the business partners of the initiative. The winners were selected in an open online vote held from May to September with nearly 40,000 participants.

"Best hut serviced without vehicles" award went to "Echo" in the Balkan Mountain. The winner in the category "Best hut serviced by an off-road vehicle or lift" is the “Mazalat” hut in the Balkan Mountain. The old "Buzludzha" hut was declared "Best hut serviced by car". “Botev”, under the peak of the same name, was chosen as the best serviced shelter. "Best shelter not managed on site" became "Koncheto" in Pirin Mountain.
