Hiking in the Carpathian Mountains

With Bering Travel, you get a safe and comfortable walking holiday with all the practicalities taken care of - we take care of transporting your luggage from hotel to hotel, and our user-friendly Bering Travel app guides you through the landscape so you can focus on nature and experiences.

Transylvania is especially known for its dramatic Carpathian Mountains, which cut through the landscape with towering cliffs and green valleys. The mountains are perfect for both moderate and challenging hikes, and with Bering Travel you can choose routes to suit your experience level and interests. One of the most popular routes is the hike to Bucegi and Făgăraș Mountains, where you can enjoy breathtaking views, deep gorges and the tranquility of untouched landscapes. On these routes you can experience an almost magical silence, broken only by the wind and perhaps the sight of a fleeting deer or eagle soaring over the mountains.

Encounter medieval towns and villages

Transylvania is famous for its well-preserved medieval towns and traditional villages that add a unique cultural and historical dimension to your walking holiday. Cities like Brașov, Sighișoara and Sibiu offer beautiful cobbled streets, ancient fortifications and colourful buildings with a charm that is rare to find. These cities make great stops along the way to explore local markets, crafts and not least the local food that is rich in flavour and tradition.

Castles and the legend of Dracula

No trip to Transylvania is complete without a visit to the famous castles and fortresses scattered across the region. Among the most iconic is Bran Castle, which is often associated with the legend of Dracula. Although the castle has no direct connection to Vlad Tepes, who inspired the myth, it's still fascinating to visit this beautiful castle and learn about the rich history and folklore of the region. Peleș Castle in Sinaia is also a must with its opulent architecture and location in the Carpathian Mountains.
