Day Trip to Transfagarasan

Location Bucharest, Romania

EASTERN EUROPEAN EXPERIENCE

This day trip offers an opportunity to admire one of Romania's most spectacular landscapes, the Transfagarasan Highway, which boasts stunning vistas. During your journey, you will also visit notable sites such as Targoviste, Curtea de Arges, and Poenari Castle.



Travel to the former capital of Wallachia, Targoviste, and explore the remnants of Vlad the Impaler's court, now more famously known as Dracula. Proceed from there to Curtea de Arges, where you will find one of Romania's most enchanting churches, serving as both a sacred sanctuary and the resting place for the country's first monarchs. Continue along the winding road towards Poenari Castle, Dracula's fortified residence overlooking the Carpathian Mountains.

Embark on the Transfagarasan Road, constructed during Nicolae Ceaușescu's regime with military assistance. This scenic route offers an unparalleled vista, taking you to the highest point of the mountain, where you may marvel at the awe-inspiring Balea Glacial Lake. After enjoying the journey, return to your starting point.
