Dear hikers,

On Saturday, November 1, we’ll enjoy a beautiful day and an equally beautiful hike along Via Transilvanica.

We start in Mediaș, from the milestone in front of St. Margaret’s Fortified Church, walk through the town, and enter the forest in the Wewern area.
We pass by vineyards and follow the trail to the village famous for its healing waters. After about 7 km through the forest, we stop at Bassen Pension for a warm soup and a slice of cake.

The return to Mediaș will be by car.
