Trek Transylvania (Romania)

Photo of Trek Transylvania (Romania)

Deposit: £195 Minimum Sponsorship: £1,750

Since ancient times the territory of today's Romania has been a borderland of European civilization. This fact has had strong influences on Romanian culture and its people, who are now an exotic mixture of Oriental, Slavic and Occidental elements.

Your trek takes place in Romania's famed Transylvanian Alps in a small region of the country, rich in tradition and myths. You will make contact with locals, sleep in small mountain villages, taste traditional food, and at the same time trek in three of the highest mountain ranges of Romania.

You will visit the 14th century Romanian icon, Dracula's Castle this beautiful castle was fabulously renovated in the 19th century by the royal family of Romania.

The Bucegi Mountains are rich in heathen mythological symbols, Piatra Craiului, The King's Rock National Park is home to the Carpathian Large Carnivore Project (protecting wolves, lynx and bears) and the Fagaras Mountains, also known as the Transylvanian Alps are the highest mountains in the country. Nearly every day you will trek to over 2,400m, on steep mountain paths, needing all your mental and physical strength. It is a challenging yet very rewarding expedition and at the same time, a trip back in time, to an area where tradition still guides people's lives and nature is wild.
