WILD ROMANIA TOUR

There are only a few places in Europe where wildlife still exists in its original form, and Romania is one of them: mountains and valleys without access routes, virgin forests, the most extended large carnivore population on the continent and last but not least, the unique and magnificent Danube Delta.

With an incredible natural heritage, Romania remains one of the largest and most important biodiversity points that Europe still has. Without the fame of the Alps or the Himalayan mountains, the Carpathians fascinate with their terrifying wildness, and the Danube Delta, the youngest Romanian land, does not cease to amaze with its uniqueness and beauty over the last 10,000 years.

We invite you in a unique 12-days adventure that crosses Romania from east to west.

A journey of awareness and overcoming the limits. It is the minimal effort that Romania needs in order to be able to display everything that is most valuable to the curious eyes: that unique wilderness so appreciated by those who travel overseas, to be able to perceive it and live it.

We promise you will be part of the most courageous approach that Romania has ever had.

Nights spent under the sky full of stars, adventure and adrenaline on the water and on the land, and a young team of certified guides that becomes your road trip companions and with whom you can gather the most beautiful memories.

Shortly … Wild Romania.

Day 1 – Macin Mountains

* It is 7 o’clock in the morning and we are ready for 12 days of pure adventure deep into the wildest corners of Romania. We take the luggage and drive to the ancient lands of the Macin Mountains. Dobrogea and especially the north part represented by the Macin Mountains have always been a land of particular interest from all historical, ethnographic, geographic, climatic, geological and ecological points of view. In the first part of the day we have a trekking tour up to the Tutuiatu Peak. Although these mountains are not higher than 467 m, they offer a special view that justifies the millennial interest of the empires for these lands. Up on top of the mountain we enjoy a short picnic and then we head back to the base of the mountain
* Before sunset we reach the edge of the Iacobdeal Lake, a good place for pictures. In the evening we will camp in a special place, we will enjoy the dinner prepared by the fire and we will socialize around the firecamp. From there up we have a great panorama, admiring the Dobrogea’s lights below our feet
* Sleep

Day 2 – Wild Beaches Of Black Sea

* We take the luggage and drive to the wild beaches of the Black Sea. Destination and first stop: Razim, the largest freshwater lake in Romania
* We launch kayaks on the water and paddle about 10 kilometers while enjoying the magnificent spectacle of nature
* Once we arrived on the wild beaches of the Black Sea, we camped near an old fishing house, currently abandoned
* We’re looking for that special place, where we can be alone with the sea, and where the stars are best seen during the night
* We mount the tents and then we can explore the beach, swimm into the Black Sea or start getting to know each other

Day 3 – Gura Portitei

* Coffee and snack
* We have a day of well-deserved relaxation. We have time to enjoy the waves and have fun kayaking in the energetic waters of the Sea
* For a few hours we will explore an isolated place between the Delta and the Sea: Gura Portitei port. An adventure through the sand awaits us
*In the evening we gather around the campsite and enjoy the stories told around the campfire

Day 4 – Oravita – Anina Steam Train

* Who is eager to wake up in the morning will have the chance to admire the sunrise. The others can sleep one hour longer before the breakfast. A new day of adventure is waiting for us on the kayaks

Day 5 – Rudaria Water Mills & Bigar Waterfall

* We wake up in the early hours of the morning, eat something fast and start on the road
* Today we have a surprise for you. One of the most spectacular canyons in Romania. For 3-4 hours we will let ourselves be conquered by the incredible beauty of the canyon
* After trekking through the canyon, we return to the cars and reach the final destination of this day
* We leave the luggage in a wonderful traditional location with tasty food that will host us for the following nights. Around 5:00 o’clock p.m., accompanied by a forest guard we will go deeply into the wildlife. We will walk in a complete silence through the forest for about 700-meters
* Afterwards we arrive in a modern bear observer, equiped to receive up to 30 people inside. From the comfortable seats we admire through the glass windows the show offered by the bears came to feed themselves. Mama bear with its babies, solitary adult bears, or even foxes, will provide us with a unique experience that not many of us had the chance to live before. Everything is taking place in the forest natural environment, where people did not influence the natural course of nature
* In the evening we retire to the rustic guesthouse where we are expected with a delicious dinner and relaxing moments

* We have breakfast and we prepare for a new radical landscape change
* At the midday we reach the Cerna Valley, where a 3-hour trekking tour is waiting for us
* 2 hours along the famous stairs that reach the Inelet hamlet (short version). 100 meters of wooden stairs divided into 4 segments. Pure adrenaline
* At the end of this tour we reach a point that could very well describe Heaven on Earth: Inelet, the isolated hamlet from the Cerna Mountains
* We stretch our tents on a green meadow with fruit trees and a panorama directly to the peaks of the nearby mountains and get ready for another night spent under the moonlight. Afterwards, we start preparing our food and enjoy the evening together. Sleep
