Dear hiker,

A journey through authentic landscapes, among barns, hayfields, and mountain ridges, with a delicious finale!
This beautiful hike will take us through the Land of Wooden Barns, a picturesque area where we’ll cross hayfields and alpine pastures, constantly accompanied by spectacular views as we make our way to Hansa Peak. We’ll follow a pleasant and accessible trail and enjoy close-up panoramas of the Făgăraș, Căpățânii, Latorița, Cindrel, and Lotru Mountains.
Additional exploration
For those who wish to continue, we’ll have the option to explore other ridges in the area, depending on the group’s preferences.

After the hike, we’ll reach the Lotrioara Valley, where we’ll be welcomed with warm hospitality by our hosts at Pensiunea Rotarii. Here, we can relax and enjoy the most delicious roast, prepared in the unique mountain style – a true reward after an active day outdoors.
