Description

Come with us on a winter mountaineering adventure to remember in the Făgăraș Mountains. We’ll explore beautiful scenery, put our winter climbing skills to the test over two days and have a great time.

The Făgăraș is a section of mountains that makes up part of the much larger Carpathian Mountain Range. Here you’ll be able to find tall mountains, including the tallest in Romania, Moldovan Peak (2,544 meters).

We love heading to the mountains in Romania in the winter. It’s snowy, icy and cold, but that all adds to the fun. You will need to have previous experience climbing though, this is not a trip for beginners.

Across the two days, we’ll be climbing ice, trekking through snow and more. All our guides are certified and have experience in these mountains so you’ll be in safe hands.

I had 2 amazing rock climbing days. Dan was a fantastic and super knowledgeable climbing instructor. I learned so much and really enjoyed myself.

David

Thanks Lucian for an amazing trip in the Făgăraș mountains, he was very skilled and flexible with regards to shifting conditions. Although we did not reach the peak due to bad weather, he made up a new route and I got the full 2 days regardless. Would strongly recommend to people with a little bit of hiking/climbing experience at least. Bring warm clothes, gloves and headwear!

I had an incredible hike with Lucian and can't recommend this company enough! Brilliant communication and very accomodating. Lucian was an incredible mountain guide who was super flexible, kind, funny and it was like hiking with a friend. He knows so much about the mountains and the trails. It really was one of the best hikes I've done! Thanks again
