Join us to a 2 day adventure private tour in Transylvanian Alps - Fagaras Mountains!

We pick you up from your location in Brasov at 8:30 to start an authentic 2 day adventure program in Transylvanian Alps, driving on Transfagarasan Highway as know as "the Road to the Sky", "the Road to the Clouds", "the Best Driving Road in the World" and even "A spectacular Monument to Earth-Moving Megalomania"!

We hike to  Balea Waterfall - the highest step-waterfall in Romania, more than 60  meters tall. We visit Balea Lake, Vidraru Dam, Poienari Fortress, the  real Vlad Tepes' Residential Castle - access to the citadel is made by  climbing the 1,480 concrete stairs.

We hike on  the epic Stan's Gorge – 4 hours hiking trip on an impressive canyon  with ladders and via ferrata or we hike on the main ridge of Fagaras  Mountains starting from Balea Lake for about 4-6 hours.

We choose the hike depending on the weather forecast.

Transfagarasan road is open between July 1 - October 31! POIENARI FORTRESS IS CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!

Poienari Fortress is closed, for the moment, because of the bears encounters in the area! Instead of this we can visit The Cistercian Abbey of Carta, Sambata de Sus Monastery and/or Fagaras Fortress!
