Walking in the Carpathian Mountains

by grets - last update: Jun 30, 2004

Vistas

Piatra Craiului Mountains
The scenery was absolutely stunning with snow-topped mountains, green valleys and meadows full of wild flowers.
In Madura Village

Walking

We found the trekking more strenuous than expected with numerous up-hill sections on steep muddy banks. Alternative walking along tracks through villages can be arranged.

Wolves

The Carpathian Large Carnivore Project rescued two wolves from a fur factory as cubs. These are now kept in a large enclosure on the edge of town.

 Bear watching... nice pics. I like the one of seniors playing chess. Great introduction to Romania.

 Some lovely places to visit here. The bears at the dumps remind me of watching a similar thing in British Columbia. I was transfixed!
