Catskiing and Heliskiing in Romania: Top Outdoor Adventures Awaiting You

The majority of the range is located within the Romanian region of Transylvania and is still home to much of Romania’s wildlife. The country is becoming an increasingly popular tourist destination, receiving about 10 million per year.

Raw, ancient wealth

Romania’s landscapes are awe-inspiring and truly beautiful. The picture-perfect snow-capped mountains lead down to acres of alpine forests, which in turn looks out over the valleys and plains scattered with cute villages and majestic castles.

Iconic mountains

The Carpathians and Făgăraș mountains are iconic in Romania, and are exceptionally beautiful. Enjoy outstanding views of Romania’s flood plains as well as Transylvania’s wooded valleys and glacial lakes. And perhaps even see a bear!

Deep dive into the mountains

Both heliskiing and catskiing are uncredible ways to ski the remote Romanian mountains of the Carpathians and Tarcu. Heli trips take you further from the crowds, further from civilization, to those remote and untouched regions of the mountains.

In the winter, temperatures range from -5ºC to 2ºC. The country receives about 750 mm of precipitation spread throughout the year.
