Kiril Nikolov (born 1982), also known as the Disl, is the best Bulgarian orienteer at the moment.

He was born in Ruse. When he was young he tried all kinds of sport, but in 1998 finally he found his love: orienteering. The next year he was in the national team, and one more year later he tried the taste of JWOC.

At his first WOC in Switzerland (at the age of 21) he made very good results - 12th on the sprint / 15th on the long distance. During the World Championships in 2004 he showed the orienteering fans his class in the relay events, coming 5th on the first leg, just seconds after the first teams. The world started talking about him after his incredible run on the first leg of TIOMILA 2005 - it was just 2 seconds from the leading team, and the 3rd place was success for the whole Bulgaria. At the moment he is training in Bulgaria and Sweden.
