Highlights
- Vârful Vlădeasa - The Vlădeasa Mountains represent the northernmost segment among the three prominent central massifs of the Western Transylvanian (Apuseni) Mountains. Spanning approximately 50 kilometers, the primary ridge of the Vlădeasa massif features the impressive Vf. Vlădeasa, standing tall at 1836 meters. This summit ranks as the third-highest point in the Apuseni Mountains. Embark on a memorable journey, commencing at 8 o’clock in the morning with a convenient pickup from your Cluj-Napoca accommodation. Our adventure spans 80 kilometers, leading us to the quaint Rogojel Village. Before our hike kicks off, we’ll take a brief pause at the Sequoia tree. Here, amidst authentic wooden houses, the enduring traditions of Romanian culture are on display. The trek commences from Rogojel village, a 2-hour hike guiding us to the Vladeasa Chalet, where a delightful Romanian picnic awaits. Following the break, our exploration continues with a 2-hour ascent to Vladeasa Peak.

Gorgeous views and amazing guide - Tudor is an incredible guide, very kind and knowledgeable, it was a pleasure to do this gorgeous hike with him. The Carpathian Mountains are beautiful and a sight you won’t forget. Tudor also adapts his walks to his group so everyone can have fun and make the most of the tour based on their capabilities. I highly recommend this tour to discover and learn a bit more about the region

Amazing views and walk along ridge - We went to Lespezi viewpoint instead of Vladeasa. Still, amazing views, and useful and interesting guidance on nature and geology and history by guide Andrei and assistant Ferea.

Vladeasa peak - It was an amazing day, Tudor was a great guide, help us in each moment, and share with us part of the history of Romania and Cluj. Finally, despite the snow, we reached the peak in an unforgettable jouney.

This tour - is just Wow, incredible experience indeed!!! - This tour - is just Wow, mind-blowing experience indeed!!! For our family it was the most amazing hiking experience because of 3 unique destinations visiting at once: 1) Bride's Waterfall, 2) Vladeasa Peak (1836 m!) and 3) truly unique 50-years old and only one sequoia in the entire Romania! And atmosphere was super-encouraging due to such an inspiration and encouragement for my teens extended by Tudor super-hero tour guide from Curly Guide Tours agency, who excided all our expectations again! ;) Thanks a lot @Tudor, our big friend – you are amazing & super-professional! :)

Exhausting but great experience - The view from the Vladeasa Peak is breathtaking. Definitely worth a break there and time to breath in the fresh air and the vibe.
The way to the White Rocks is exciting and the view amazing!

I really enjoyed the hike, even if towards the end it seemed like the way back was neverending, I am really glad I went. - My favourite part was the climb on the White Rocks because the view from up there was amazing. I would definitely advise visiting those since it didn't require a great extra effort. The guides were very open and sociable. They didn't rush us and stayed with everybody's rhytm. They also took a lot of photos of us and sent them at the end. I recommend!
