The mountain tourism in Romania
Romania’s mountains offer a very rich variety of mountain sports. Medium heights are approximately 1 000 m and there are also some unusual climbs for tourists at Babele, Sfinxul of Bucegi and Pietrele Doamnei in Rarau. Here, the mountains have been shaped by volcanic activity and guarantee a unique setting.
The benefits of spending a vacation in the Carpathians are extremely varied and adaptive to the wide range of activities that can be enjoyed here. The different styles of accommodation have varying degrees of comfort and the restaurants cater for all tastes at reasonable prices. You can choose to spend a luxury holiday in 4 or 5 Star hotels or you can choose a more rural style vacation in the guest houses or peasant’s homes, all of whom will assure you of a vacation you will never forget.
