Une tres belle balade ce lundi 14 novembre.

Nous aimons les paysages autour de Moeciu car on decouvre la vie et les scenes de moyenne montagne tout en ayant une vue superbe sur les montagnes de Bucegi quand le soleil est de la partie. Iulian nous avait prepare comme d’habitude un bel itineraire de 5 heures de marches(sportif mais accessible a tous). Les quelques arrets dans les granges nous ont permis de manger en cours de route. A l’arrivee une bonne Ciorba nous a permis de nous rechauffer.

Bucuresteni pe munte

Whaat a journey….Două zile concentrate, in care am ramas fascinata de ce frumuseti ascund Bucegii nostri. Daca in prima zi m-am simit ca o pasare, mergand aproape de nori, cu soarele in ochi si vantul de la Omu pe la urechi, iar seara am mancat mai bine ca la mama, a doua zi am pornit grabiti, si dupa 4 ore de urcat si mult coborat prin padurea de brazi, am iesit la dealurile cernite ale Moeciului de Sus, iar vacutzele, prietenele lui Iulica, ne-au dat binetze din talaga… Un traseu sublim, dar si vremea a fost de partea noastra…

Multumim Iuli Ca… (>>>)

Mikael Eubanks hiking in Romania

This was my latest of many hiking trips I have taken with Iulian’s guide services.  As usual, his route selection and flexibility to work with my schedule and abilities made for a fantastic hike!  I have come to depend on his expertise in the region and he has become a friend and outdoor mentor based on the many hours we have spent hiking together over several years.  He arranges tours well based on a hiker’s abilities and he knows I enjoy a challenge.  This trip did not disappoint – it was very memorable and challenging!  There is also no sub… (>>>)

Fogarascher Bergen wandern

Im September waren wir 4 Tage mit Julian in den Fogarascher Bergen wandern. Julian hat das Tempo und die Touren genau auf unser Können und unsere Kondition angepasst.  Wir haben wunderschöne Aussichten genossen, gemütliche Pausen in der Sonne eingelegt und den Moldoveanu (2544m) bestiegen. Seine Betreuung vor und während des Aufenthalts lies keine Wünsche offen.

Besonders gut fanden wir, dass wir das Dorf seiner Großmutter kennengelernt haben und auf der Hütte mit am Küchentisch sitzen durften. Die Freundlichkeit der M… (>>>)

Our best regards, Commissarissen Shanghai

Dear Iulian, thank you so much for the photos. I am sure I speak on behalf of everyone if I say that we had truely a fantastic two days in Bucegi mountains with you. A long walk on the first day with one sprained ankle and a lot of blisters, a good night sleep and a more comfortable walk back…..great view, lot of fun and laughter and even a glass of plum brandy. Overall, exactly the trip we had in mind!! The photos are the proof! Surely, we can recommend you to everyone we know. So once again, a million thanks and, who knows, we will see you aga… (>>>)

We would recommend your organization without any hesitation for these kind of trips

Although we only had a few days this September to get a flavour of your beautiful mountains, you succeeded in arranging a beautiful trip for us. I really enjoyed your knowledge on the country, its history, culture & nature, and of course the mountains itself. Learned a lot these few days. Not in the least on the excellent beers, wines and sausages.

Thanks for arranging this for us.

All the best,

Dank dat je dit voor ons hebt geregeld

Beste Iulian,

Hoewel we de afgelopen week in September maar een paar dagen te besteden hadden, ben je er in geslaagd om een prachtige trip voor ons te organiseren. Ik heb uitgebreid genoten van je kennis over Roemenië, haar cultuur & historie en natuurlijk de bergen zelf. Heb een boel geleerd deze paar dagen. Overigens niet in het minst betreffende jullie prima bier, wijn en worstjes.

Wij zouden je organisatie – en zeker jou – zonder twijfel aanbevelen voor dit soort trips.

Het beste,

Michiel Haarman, Nederl… (>>>)

Fagaras ridge bakpacking

Iulian,

What a first class job you did in organizing my 5 day traverse of the Fagaras Mountains. I requested you put a program together after advising you of my experience and I couldn’t have asked for a more personalized and suitable trek.  Your excellent knowledge of the mountains and aptitude in gauging my capability enabled you to alter the program on a day to day basis to enhance my trek. The result was a great balance between trekking and experiencing the added flavor of Brasov and Sibiu.

The Fagaras Mountains were really beautiful … (>>>)

We spent 10 wonderful days with Iulian exploring Romania

We didn’t know much about the country before we came, and were astonished to find one of the most charming countries in Europe. We hiked for 2 days the Bucegi mountains. The bucolic scenery was out of this world -straight out of a Pieter Breugel painting. We then “graduated” to the Fagaras mountains; much more demanding physically, but the scenery made it worth it. In between hiking days Iulian sprinkled visits to mountain monasteries, Saxon fortified churches, medieval towns, and the castle of Vlad Ples (purpor… (>>>)

Wandertour „Wandern und Kultur in Transsilvanien“

Eine Woche wandern in Rumänien? Das stellte uns bereits vor dem Hinflug vor viele Fragen. Aus dem verregneten Deutschland befürchteten wir zwei (Oliver und Annika), auch in Rumänien auf schlechtes Wetter zu stoßen. Müssten wir evtl. im Regen wandern? Wie würden wir die Touren überstehen als untrainierte Norddeutsche ohne Bergerfahrung? Und wie würde unser Guide sein? Immerhin sollten wir eine Woche gemeinsam verbringen. Doch bereits am Flughafen erwarteten uns die ersten zwei positive Überraschung in Form einer vom blauen H… (>>>)
