Hike 4 Expats in Romania

Hello, mountain people

If you love wild landscapes, mountains and if you like spending a day moving in the nature and breathing fresh cool air, then this hike is for you. 🍀 Discover the beauty of the Carpathians with a nice and international group, guided by a certified mountain guide speaking English. We bring fun and we create wonderful memories for our hikers. ✨

We invite you to a beautiful and medium hike in the mountains close to Brașov. Piatra Craiului also known as the Queen of the Carpathians, has a smaller twin mountain called Piatra Mică. Smaller but nonetheless beautiful and challenging as the main ridge. The views from up there give onto the massifs all around and to mountain villages scattered under our feet. You shouldn’t miss that!  So tell your friends (expats or Romanians) and join us! 🏔️
