Verila ( ) is a mountain range in western Bulgaria with an altitude of 1,415 meters above sea level. It is part of the Ruy–Verila mountain chain. Verila Glacier on Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica is named after it.
== Geography == Verila straddles in northwest–southeast direction for about 20 km; its maximum width is 12 km. To the north the Bukapreslapska Saddle (1,090 m) links it the mountain range of Vitosha; to the south the Klisura Saddle (1,025 m) forms the connection to Rila, the highest mountain range in the Balkan Peninsula. Its slopes descend to the Radomir Valley to the northwest, the Dupnitsa Valley to the southwest, and the Samokov Valley to the northeast. It has a flat main ridge with short indented slopes. The highest summit is Golyam Debelets (1,415 m), rising east of the depopulated village of Yarebkovitsa.
