These three days of ski touring in Romania will give you the opportunity to explore Fagaras mountains, the most challenging mountains from the Carpathians. Your mountain guide will adapt the difficulty at your preferred pace, from leisure ski-touring to race level of ski-mountaineering. It's the perfect way to explore the best of what the Carpathian Mountains have to offer in such a short time.
Your day by day program
Arrival and welcome at the Sibiu airport and transfer to your hotel in the city center. Free evening to visit Sibiu, former European Cultural Capital and definitely the most beautiful medieval city in Romania.
Early transfer to Balea Cascada, from where you’ll take the cable car to Balea Lac. The only access way to the heart of Fagaras, at more than 2000m altitude. Our home base for the next 2 nights will be an old mansion that belonged to Ceausescu. Once we have arrived, we’ll get equipped and ready to discover the steep slopes of Fagaras mountains.
