Dear nature lover,

I invite you on a soulfully guided hike, step by step, through one of the most picturesque areas of Mărginimea Sibiului: Țara Colibelor (The Land of the Huts).
We start from Sadu and let ourselves be carried by the fresh green of spring, the clean air, and the charm of scattered huts in the meadows. You can also bring your dog along, as we are pet friendly.
Moreover, this is a great opportunity to meet kind people, in case your friends can’t make it or you don’t have someone to hike with: this tour is definitely for you.
We’ll also stop by the MGS Cabin to enjoy the breathtaking view.
We’re not in a rush — we hike peacefully, share stories, discover things, and reconnect with nature and ourselves.
It’s a friendly hike, carefully and joyfully guided, ideal for those looking to escape the rush and enjoy something truly authentic.

We invite you to turn an ordinary day into a memorable one.
Let’s hike together on June 7th!

We meet at 8:30 AM in the parking lot of Kaufland, Calea Cisnădiei no. 92, Sibiu 550394.
