The
region of Botevgrad municipality is quite rich in natural resources.
The relief is remarkable for its outstanding variety. The municipality
covers the following geographic parts: a part of Botevgradska Kotlovina
(the valley of Botevgrad), some parts of Botevgradski Predbalkan mountain
and four of the Balkan shoulders - Razhana, Golyama Planina, Mourgash and
Billo. Kotlovinata Zhleba - Fillet Hollow is situated between the main
Balkan Range and the Northern Balkan. It was formed between the end of the
Pliocene and the beginning of Quaternary periods. This hollow has sunken
as a result of Tectonic movements.
The
town is situated in the valley of the river Bistritsa. This is an
industrial and cultural centre, with the enormous tobacco plant
Bulgartabak and the American university.
The
rivers on the territory of Botevgrad municipality are left tributaries of
the Malak Iskar river. The Bebresh river is the main draining artery. It
runs down the large valley cut between Mourgash and Bilo.
