“It was the afternoon and evening after a rain, and it was absolutely stunning. Some fog was in the gorge, and the sunset was insane. Guide was super nice and had lots of knowledge for the trip and for surrounding areas. I would recommend being physically fit for this activity, as it was somewhat difficult at points. Climbing and hike was so cool.”

Review of Brasov’s Carpathian day hike: flexible routes, expert guides, mountain views, hut meals, practical tips, and honest value advice.

“Our original plan was to go to Fagaras mountains but due to the unexpected snowfall the road was closed and we needed to change our plans. Piatra Craiului offered a nice option to hike on a different type of mountain. Unfortunately the weather was not on our side, the fog hided the mountains and we couldn’t do the whole trail. The lunch break at the hut was anyway really nice. And on the way back we hiked through a very impressive gorge! In spite of the weather circumstances our guide Ovidiu did his best and the hiking was a great experience! He was a reliable, nice and professional guide! Also…”

“The day we went we drove through thick fog and arrived in a downpour. Alex offered to drive us to the lake and waterfalls rather than hike in the rain. We were dead set on hiking so we hiked. The hike is moderately challenging and through a beautiful forest along the gorge. The color of the lake, even in the rain, was beautiful. We then hiked to the waterfall which was truly beautiful. Alex provided a wonderful lunch and snacks along the way. He filled us in on information about the area. As we returned on the hike the sun came out to warm us up and give us a…”

He was a very nice guide, always offering help on the slippery path when needed, very attentive, considered and kind. We also had a nice balance of talking with each other and just silently walking for ourselves. The different views are stunning and very diverse as well! All in all 10 out of 10 would book again and recommend! it was one of the best days I spend in Transylvania! thanks tudor! :)”

“Beware it is a long day! But it is well worth it. Lots of riding in the car but I enjoyed looking at the country side. You will do a bit of hiking but there will be beautiful views. And the little towns ( villages) are very quaint and the people are very nice. We went in November so I guess it’s like a shoulder month so not so much people. And our tour guide ( Andrei) was great.”
