Romania activity holiday, Western Carpathians
Description of Romania activity holiday, Western Carpathians
This short – four day – but extremely worthwhile, small group activity holiday in Romania will have travellers: cycling, hiking and caving amongst the beautiful karst landscapes and beech forests of the Western Carpathian Mountains.
Clean and fresh mountain air combined with river valleys and flower-filled alpine meadows make this region of Romania incredibly inviting for lovers of the great outdoors with the chance to journey underground, in Meziadului and Crystals caves, a definite highlight for adventurous explorers.
Back on the surface you’ll be invited to experience the warmth and hospitality of local Romanians in authentic guesthouse accommodation in the village of Rosia. This really is a gorgeous region of Romania with the drama of the Padurea Craiului Mountains blending effortlessly with laid back rural life hidden within the hamlets and over the hills.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
There were so many memorable moments, from the stunning views on the Hikes and Bike rides, to the excitement of exploring Caves millions of years old!
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
I can't think of any tips because everything was taken care of and every need seen to, so that everything ran smoothly and seemed effortless and an absolute pleasure!
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Absolutely!
Our Guide was local and our accommodation was run by Locals too, which helped us not only integrate more easily but also made us feel so very welcome and constantly aware of the small, yet valued positive impact that our mini- visit was having.
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
OUTSTANDING!!
From the very start, we received wonderful support and guidance from Mihai - Tour Operator Co-ordinator.
We were then picked up from the Airport & returned on the last day by Andrei, who is a font of knowledge and an absolute delight to speak with!
Our main Guide- Tic (Ludovic) was an absolute Star! He made the whole experience PERFECT in every way! His kind and gentle manner and his knowledge and passion for both the land and the wildlife was truly inspirational!!
