Walk on unmarked forest roads with astonishing landscapes over the Southern Carpathians, which surround the Burzenland - a historic and ethnographic area in southeastern Transylvania with a mixed population of Romanians, Germans, and Hungarians, also known as "The Little Transylvania": Piatra Mare and Postavarul Massifs, Baiului Mountains, Bucegi Natural Park, Iezer-Papusa Mountains, Fagaras Mountains, and of course Piatra Craiului National Park. Cross deep forests and meadows with wild flowers, from where we have one of the best spots to take photos of the surrounding mountains. Romania, according to National Geographic, is in 7th place in the TOP 10 Places to See Autumn Leaves, so do not miss the opportunity to have a hike in this period. During the wintertime, we can identify the wildlife tracks in the snow - bear, wolf, stag, and wild boar. So, if you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime photo tour, take a step into the wild to feel free.
