The neighboring village of Raven features the Petrified Forest, a culturally and historically significant natural site located in a deep valley known as Gabaz Dere by locals.

Additionally, the reserve is home to several species listed in Bulgaria's Red Book and protected on a European and global level.

The archaeological site known as Orpheus' Sanctuary is located about 9 km (5.6 miles) north of Lale, in the Kaya Basha area.

Dating back to the late Bronze Age, the sanctuary was originally built as a shrine to Thracian king Orpheus.

Between the neighboring villages of Neofit Bozvelievo, located 2 km (1.2 miles) to the northeast, and Lale, lies a ritual complex with 11 rock niches spread over two levels.
