Join me on a easy trek on the hills of Medias. From the walled city center we will walk about 15 minutes, enter the Greweln forest and be on the lookout for deer - they are easily and frequently spotted here. The trek is an easy one, about 8 km ( 5 miles), and we will follow the shape of the valley, returning from where we started. There are two viewpoints on the trail (one at the beginning of it, where you will have a full view of the city). If sky is clear towards south, you can even see The Făgăraș Mountains. If you are around during April - May, the trek can include a little bit of foraging. This forest is famous for "leurdă" (wild garlic, Allium ursinum), a spring plant that made its way into soup soups, salads, pesto. Hey, any variation of garlic is good for Romanian. And it's a pretty good spot for spotting a wide variety of mushrooms.

This private hiking trip is a great opportunity to explore Piatra Craiului National Park in the Carpathian Mountains, an area pretty much untouched by the 21st century. Trek past gorges, forests and pastures where mountain shepherds still work, and see a side of Romania that's hardly changed in generations.

See the cavernous Zarnesti Gorge, and learn about the traditional rural industries of cheese-making and shepherding. Refuel with hearty Romanian lunch at a mountain hut. Route may be changed without notice due to weather conditions. The name of the mountain came from one of the citadels built by the Hungarian Kingdom, as a custom, control and protection point, at the southern border of Transylvania, at the bottom of the mountains, at the end of XIV century. The name of the highest peak (2238 m) is called Piscul Ciobanului or Piscul Baciului - Shepherd's Peak in English language and Hirtenspitze in German language. The locals called the mountain The Stone (Piatra). The main ridge is regarded as one of the most beautiful sites in the Carpathians. Best period: May - October! January - March is ok, because of the snow.

We will visit 4 locations, if time allows it, in a 6 hour time window in and around Bucharest. These forgotten places from our list will help you understand better the troubled past that the country has gone through in the last few decades, since communism fell. This tour will take us through the rubble and will help create a much deeper understanding, similar to the experience you get from visiting a museum, but much more real. Hundreds of amazing places that used to house workers, provide them entertainment and more importantly work, are now forgotten and abandoned, left to decay. Well, not 100% forgotten, as urban explorers and (sadly) scavengers still visit them sometimes.
