Highlights
Avoid big bus (coach) on the winding road! Join a small group (maximum 7) in a minivan!
Our first destination is Curtea de Argeș Monastery, one of the most important and iconic religious landmarks. Here it is the burial place of Romanian royal family.
The second is Poenari Fortress, once served as a castle for Vlad the Impaler, the historical figure who inspired the legend of Dracula. We will admire it from the outside and learn about its fascinating history.
Next, we will visit the impressive Vidraru Dam, a remarkable feat of engineering from the 1960s that holds back the sparkling waters of Lake Vidraru.
We then ascend into the Făgăraș Mountains National Park, where nature's beauty truly comes alive.
Next is Balea Lake, the place of view on the winding road, open only from June to October, located at over 2,000 meters altitude. Here, you'll admire the famous winding Top Gear Road.
On the way back we'll stop at Capra Waterfall, perfect for taking in the fresh mountain air.
Itinerary
Curtea de Arges Monastery
30 minsAdmission Ticket FreeTemporarily under renovation, the scaffolding cover, you can not see the interior. The Curtea de Argeș Monastery is famous for its elaborate stonework, spiraled towers, intricate decorative motifs, and harmonious proportions. The design is highly unique and doesn’t resemble typical Orthodox churches, partly due to the strong Byzantine and Moorish influences. Inside, the walls are adorned with beautiful frescoes, and the atmosphere is deeply spiritual and historic. ⚰️ Royal Tombs: The monastery is the burial place of Romanian royalty, including: • King Carol I and Queen Elisabeth • King Ferdinand I and Queen MariePoenari Citadel
20 minsAdmission Ticket FreePoenari Fortress is a historic citadel located in Romania, perched atop a steep cliff in the Carpathian Mountains. Built in the 13th century and later enhanced by Vlad the Impaler, it served as a strategic stronghold and a defensive fortress.
