Dear hikers,

On Sunday, June 15th, we’ll enjoy a beautiful day, explore diverse ecosystems, and savor a bowl of fish soup!
We start in the center of Mediaș, quickly climb a hill, pass through two pasture-forest areas (an ecosystem mostly found here in southern Transylvania), admire a young woodland, and then enjoy a fish soup or fish roe salad at Cherhana Denisa.

The total route is 8 km, 2 of which go through town, the rest through nature.
If we’re lucky, we might even spot some deer!

This hike is suitable for families and for little (but resilient) feet.
