In the heart of Transylvania, between Sibiu, Mediaș, Sighișoara, Rupea, and Făgăraș, lie the Transylvanian Highlands, a storybook landscape where nature and history weave together into a singular masterpiece. Framed by the waters of the Târnava Mare and Olt rivers and the Hârtibaciu Basin, the rolling hills, meadows, and forests guard secrets dating back centuries.

​

For hundreds of years, Saxons, Hungarians, Romanians, and Roma have together shaped a living tapestry of cultural heritage and traditions. Within this land lie five UNESCO World Heritage sites, 60 fortified churches, castles, manor houses, and nearly eight centuries of history waiting to be explored. A network of 500 kilometers of trails winds through carefully preserved ecosystems and habitats, making the Transylvanian Highlands the second-largest protected area in Romania after the Danube Delta.

​

This is a haven for slow travel enthusiasts: hikers, cyclists, and equestrians discover routes leading to villages with guesthouses restored in traditional style, barns ingeniously transformed into restaurants or wellness retreats, and certified ecotourism services. The culinary scene is equally captivating,  from honest, rustic dishes to refined gourmet experiences, wine tastings, and local cheeses, all in harmony with the unhurried rhythm of nature.

​

Above all, one guiding principle unites the Transylvanian Highlands: care and respect for its nature, culture, and people.
