The Romanian mountains,
in every season.

The Prahova Valley and Bucegi, Brașov and Poiana Brașov, the Făgăraș Mountains (with the Transfăgărășan road), Piatra Craiului, Retezat, Parâng–Rânca (Transalpina), Apuseni, Ceahlău, Rodnei and Bukovina with Rarău. Each has both winter slopes and hiking trails.

For skiing, roughly December–March, depending on snow. For high-altitude hiking, June–September, when the trails are snow-free. The alpine roads (Transfăgărășan, Transalpina) are typically open in summer–autumn.

Many regions have short, marked, easy trails (e.g. the Bucegi plateau with the cable car to the top, or low trails in Piatra Craiului and Apuseni). Check the difficulty, duration and markings of each trail before setting off.

The alpine sections usually open in summer: the Transfăgărășan roughly from July, the Transalpina from June, until around October — depending on snow. Always check the official source (CNAIR) before you travel; we only show an estimate.

Grippy hiking boots, layered clothing, a rain shell, water, an offline map/app and a torch. At altitude the weather changes fast — check the forecast and tell someone your route.

Yes. On the Weather page we show temperature, wind and snow depth for each mountain region, from Open-Meteo (free, no invented data), updated about every 30 minutes.
