Tres días increíbles , caminando por las montañas nevadas de la aldea de Bran

Tres días increíbles , caminando por las montañas nevadas de la aldea de Bran hasta Moeciu de Sus, y visitando la encantadora ciudad de Brasov, Iulian ha sido un gran cicerone, y hemos descubierto gracias a él, la mas genuina forma de vivir en las montañas , parece que el tiempo se ha parado en estas pequeñas aldeas, todo ello acompañado por las comidas y las bebidas típicas … muchas gracias también por el reportaje fotográfico : )

Una experiencia absolutamente recomendable no solo por la belleza de los paisajes de Rumania , sino también p… (>>>)

A great itinerary

We started by taking the Cable car from Busteni to Babele. There we made a big loop passing thru Omu Peak and arriving after 8 hours in Pestera. The sun was bright and the scenary was incredible with the clouds in the valley. In some parts it was like walking on the clouds. Iulian had arranged for us a good stop for the night in the National Salvamont School in Pestera where we recoverd with a good meal. The second day was very nice as well since the landscape had turned white with the night frost. We arrived in Moeciu tired but happy. Next time wil… (>>>)

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 … (>>>)
