This tour takes you in just two days on Romania’s highest peaks: Moldoveanu (2544m) located in the Eastern half of the range, a peak which impresses by its massiveness. Negoiu (2535m) located in the Western half of the range, a rockier and more challenging peak. To climb it, we will hike the known ridge trail of the Transylvanian Alps.

View Profile

We are a small business based in Bucharest dedicated to creating unexpected beautiful outdoor experiences. We go up the mountains in any possible way (hiking, biking, climbing, skiing), in any season (warm or cold, with snow or without), on any possible terrain (slopes, walls, canyons, river valleys) and on any level of difficulty. You choose, We go!

For us, the MOUNTAIN is – no matter how you choose to approach it (in summer or winter, riding a bike, hiking, on skis or climbing) – : the landscape we just don’t get enough, the arena where we challenge ourselves, it is the way we learn geography, it is the risky environment we are sometimes afraid of and the maker of the will, it forges both our social and personal experience. Mountain is, first of all, passion. And, like all passions, it continuously transform ourselves into something better, or so we would like to believe. Alpine Adventure Romania is an invitation to you to discover probably the most unknown outdoor gem of Europe. Alpine Adventure Romania is not about us…IT IS ABOUT YOU AND YOUR EXPERIENCES.

 

Here are the guiding principles of Alpine Adventure Romania:

  • We always do our best that each tour is at top quality for each participant.
  • We do our best for your safety.
  • We are humans on the mountains. 
  • We fully adhere to the standards set in the International Adventure Travel Guide Qualification and Performance Standard, and we endorsed them by officially signing the guide.
