"Fagaras" Fagaras by nsbm

Fagaras is 54km west of brasov and is teeming with towering mountains plunging valleys and traditonal villages. i stayed in a pensione in the hamlet of Moieciu ..you dont get more local than this!

Just 35minutes drive from the village is the steep sided gorge through which a roadway then walkway runs thru alongside a river. it is absolutely breathtaking and refreshing. The route passes some caves of the same name and after an hours walk (or maybe more you come to Pitra craiului the ridge above the gorge. We stopped at Bradul cabana for a drink..here we encountered local woodcutters having a brew or two!...see more fotos in thing to do section.
Autumn is definetly the best time to visit Romania as the sun shines continuously and the trees are in fulll bloom..
