Looks like a beautiful hike!! Can you hire the Via Ferrata set in Tureni if you're just visiting for the day?
@TransylvanianHikerEN Жыл бұрын
Tureni is just a small village, no options to hire there. Your best chances would be in Cluj, but I'm not aware of specifics. As an alternative you could try asking people on Facebook groups with spare kits to join you on the hike.

No, there are no bears in Hoia-Baciu forest as it's very close to the city. Only birds, foxes, deer and perhaps wild boar.

I haven't seen one, but the shepherds told me that their flock was attacked right under Peak Suru and the bear even went close to Suru Hut. So you must be careful as usual in places with high bear activity, I'm planning on a video about this topic actually.

@@TransylvanianHikerEN I am thinking about going to Romania to hike, but I am weary of bears as we dont have them here and I read to much stuff concerning bears at your country. is there anywhere a spot that is safe?
@TransylvanianHikerEN2 жыл бұрын
If you want to play it safe, you should certainly avoid Bucegi Mountains, Harghita, Covasna, and Mureș counties, and unfortunately lately the Transfăgărășan road. The farther from civilization the safer. You should be relatively safe in the Apuseni mountain range or in Retezat Mountains (except Retezatul Mic the Small Retezat), just don't do anything stupid like leaving your food or your trash in your tent. It's also a good idea to make some noise at regular intervals, especially around sunrise and sunset.

Hello. Me and a group of friends are hoping to head out to the Apuseni mountain region this summer. We are looking for a town in the region that has cheap accommodation and great hiking trails too. Any recommendations as to where you think it would be best to go? Thanks.
@TransylvanianHikerEN2 жыл бұрын
Hello! On a previous trip to this area, we had our accommodation in Chișcău, which is a village, but you can also visit Bear's Cave (Peștera Urșilor) there. But you have to drive a little up into the mountains from there. There are some small towns relatively close to Apuseni, like Beiuș, Ștei, Huedin, and Câmpeni, accommodation should be cheap there. The closest cities are Cluj and Oradea, but you have to drive around 100km from there to get to Apuseni Mountains. If you want close access to the mountains, I would probably look at Beliș, Arieșeni, or Padiș. Also be careful, between Doda Pilii and Padiș, even if Google Maps and Waze are recommending it, the route is almost impossible with a small car, ideally, you need a 4x4 for that (or a lot of patience).

Just back from driving on some of these roads, flashback to how it was 40 years ago. However, back then most of these roads was dirt roads and more scary, but even if roads are sealed now, they can be very dangerous.
@TransylvanianHikerEN2 жыл бұрын
I can imagine it was much more dangerous back then. When visiting Iceland, where still a lot of roads are unpaved I experienced that it clearly makes the car more unstable on the steep portions.

We actually planned to do the Barranco del Masca hike, from Masca all the way down to the beach, brought our helmets on the plane all the way from home, but skipped the hike in the end, because the gorge was closed for safety reasons (falling rocks), and we were still kind of exhausted after hiking Teide :)
