Hike the paths of Transylvania on this 2-day small group tour. Visit the Peles and Bran Castles and experience the beauty of the surrounding Mountains. Spend the night in Piatra Craiului National Park before hiking and arriving in the Transylvanian city of Brasov.We start the tour in Gara de Nord, Bucharest main train station from where we depart on a scenic train ride out of the city. First stop will be in the resort of Sinaia where we'll visit a 350 year old monastery as we'll walk through the forest to Peles Castle, Romanian royal family's summer residence.
After visiting the Palace we'll continue by train to the city of Zarnesti, located next to Piatra Craiului Mountains, a dominant limestone ridge made a National Park because of the very rich ecosystem it consists.
Enjoy the great outdoors on a hike to Magura Village, passing through a spectacular gorge. In the village we'll find our home for the evening - a little guesthouse. Take in the view of the Bucegi and Piatra Craiului Mountains and spend the rest of your evening relaxing and enjoying the scenery.
After a restful night, begin the aprox 3h long hike to Bran Castle. We'll enjoy one of the most scenic hike in Romania at the end of it waiting the most popular landmark - Dracula's Castle (in fact, a fortress having not much to do with Bram Stoker's character). We'll tour the castle and continue our trip to Brasov by coach. In Brasov we can either get some local bikes or go on a walking tour to discover one of Transylvania most loved city.
