Conquering the Transalpina
The Transalpina motorcycle route takes you above 2,100 metres through the Transylvanian Alps. Curve after curve the pass road climbs upward, with panoramic views and cool mountain air in the middle of the Romanian summer.
Transylvania's Old Towns
On this Transylvania motorcycle tour you visit the medieval upper town of Sighișoara and the market square in Sibiu. Narrow alleys, old fortified churches and colourful facades tell of centuries of vibrant craft tradition.
Apuseni Mountains Start
Your Apuseni Mountains motorcycle journey begins and ends at the APUSENI LODGE in Avram Iancu. Even the first kilometres towards Hunedoara reveal dense forests, quiet valleys and peaceful mountain roads well away from traffic.
Bear Sanctuary Visit
On the rest day there is an optional visit to a Romanian bear sanctuary: on foot, separated only by a fence, you encounter rescued brown bears in one of the largest free-range enclosures in Europe.
Winding Carpathian Passes
The Transfăgărășan ranks among Romania's most celebrated motorcycle roads: 148 kilometres of serpentines, steep gradients and, with some luck, a Carpathian bear by the roadside – an experience that draws riders from across Europe.
