This guided hiking trip takes visitors from Sibiu into the beautiful Cindrel mountains, part of the Carpathian range that rises to the south of the city. Setting out with a guide, walkers follow trails through pine forests, alpine meadows and past mountain lakes, taking in fresh air, wildlife and sweeping views over the Transylvanian landscape. Suitable for those with reasonable fitness, it is a refreshing escape into unspoilt nature and a rewarding way to experience the mountains and traditional shepherding country that surround this historic Saxon city.
