Frohen Mutes starteten wir (Iulian, sein Freund Andrei und ich) am 25. Juli 2010 aus Rudarita nach einer Anfahrt aus Kronstadt über Zernescht und Plaiul Foii auf welcher das Fahrzeug Dacia Logan seine Qualitäten als Geländefahrzeug unter Beweis gestellt hat

Auf einem wenig begangenen Pfad meisterten wir die erste Etappe der Kammwanderung bei gutem Wanderwetter und kamen am frühen Nachmittag auf dem Berevoescu (nach einem adrenalinsteigernden Treffen mit 15 Schäferhunde) an.

Am nächsten Tag ging es bei zunächst trockenem Wet… (>>>)

It’s quite possible that a vacation in Romania might pose some challenges for the average American tourist, especially when planning to visit castles, monasteries, and historical towns, as well as complete a 4-night hut-to-hut hiking traverse of the Fagaras Mountains. Challenging, that is, unless your trip is in the capable hands of Iulian Cozma. From our pickup at the Bucharest airport to our 4:30 a.m. departure back to the airport 10 days later, every step of our trip was handled by Iulian with the utmost efficiency and care for ou… (>>>)

Chris and I would like to thank you so much for the walk you put together for us all. It was well prepared and planned, The meadows so full of wild flowers were breathtaking,and we were very impressed with your knowledge of where to walk, especially where there were no known paths. We felt you carried out the walk with true professionalism. You were extremely helpful at all times and very informative on all aspects of the walk,the area and customs of Romania.

The Pensions were really nice to stay in and the people we met were so lovely and frie… (>>>)

Iulian was a very friendly and efficient guide, and took us on a great two-day, low-level route in the beautiful Piatra Craiului National Park through forest (which we were glad of in the heat) and lush meadows. We paid a fascinating visit to cheese-making shepherds (and had a robust encounter with some sheep dogs!)

After a very nice experience with Iulian in May where we discovered Omu Peak in the Bucegi mountains we decided this time to go hiking in the Fagaras Mountains on 19th&20th of June.

It is the best period because all Rhododendrons are blossoming and the top of the hills turn red. We slept on Friday in Brancoveanu Monastery and on Saturday morning we moved up from 800m to 2100m on the North Dragus ridge. The climb was tough but the scenery on the top with all the trees blossoming was worth all the efforts.We had a great lunch next to a stream b… (>>>)

A massive thank you for arranging, and then personally guiding us through our amazing Romanian experience. The itinerary you put together perfectly matched our requirements – it covered mountain, country, forest and city landscapes -all in 5 days. In addition seeing a wild bear with her cubs, having a cup of fruit tea in a weather station on on top of Omu and watching the hay making process, were all unexpected bonuses.

Our biggest thank you goes to you personally for your attention to detail – from the fantastic Romanian food you ensur… (>>>)

My recent hike (May 2010) with Iulian will certainly be one I remember. He arranged and accompanied me on a one day 25km hike up over Piatra Mare which offered me a challenge, incredible scenery, a couple of places to stop along the way. This was my second hike with Iulian and I intend to use his guide services for many more. He is able to guide through well-planned routes that I would not be able to find on my own. Iulian chose this route based on my ability, schedule, and desire to see certain areas. His services are professional and his person… (>>>)

Lovely trip. Lovely senery. Silence and tranquility for those who want to get away from hum of busy city… Pestera is a special place, much different from Sinaia or Predeal. It’s a kind of a hidden valley located in the heart of mountains. The trip became my first experience in mountain walking. We’ve made around 15 km each day. In fact, I’ve never walked so much in a single day in my whole life:) Physically challenging, though exciting. Definitely a good excercize. Liked a lot walking on snow..

Presence of Iulian inspired the confidence a… (>>>)

We had a great hiking on 8&9th of May 2010 with Iulian in the Bucegi mountains. The routes selected were great. Saturday hike to Cerbului Saddle was technically more demanding but we enjoyed it very much.

The hike on Sunday was more relax but with great scenery as well. Pestera is a great place for hiking because it is out of the beaten tracks. There are also easy hikes near the Pestera hotel witch means that even family with kids could organize a programe there. We appreciated Iulian technical expertise but also his knowledge of the en… (>>>)
