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!

Exploring the breathtaking Fagaras Mountains while cruising along the Transfagarasan Highway was an unforgettable experience for our family. We loved the private aspects of the tour, though the overnight accommodations could have been a bit cozier.

Our family had such a fantastic experience on this private adventure, navigating scenic roads and then hiking amidst the rugged beauty of the mountains. The local meals we enjoyed were a delightful surprise—fresh and hearty, perfect fuel for our explorations. While the weather was a bit unpredictable and we encountered some slippery trails, the breathtaking views and shared laughter made every step worth it.

The combination of winding roads and majestic peaks made for an exhilarating adventure, especially during my solo hikes where I could really soak in the stunning views. However, the overnight accommodations could have been a bit more comfortable; despite that, the tranquility of the mountains made up for it.
