You are invited to join a fascinating adventure in the midst of nature! Set off on foot along the country road, which leads you to the old farm on the hill of Gușterița. Your first stop will be right here, to admire the nests of sand martins, now occupied by migratory birds that have found shelter in these places after traveling thousands of kilometers from Africa. Continue through the increasingly wide pasture, where you'll observe the birds enjoying the abundance of food offered by the insects awakened to life by the warmth of spring.
On the way, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy the spectacular panoramas of the Lotru Mountains, and in the mixed forest of oak, hornbeam, and lime, you'll be delighted by the song of the woodland birds, seeking their mate to begin the nesting season. After exiting the forest, you'll take a short lunch break in the village of Hamba, where you can relax and enjoy stories and nature discovery games, to which both the young and the old are invited.
Return to the forest to continue your exploration, and after about half an hour, you'll emerge into a meadow with a wide view of the Cindrel and Lotru Mountains. From here, a long descent will bring you back to the old farm, and following the country road you came on in the morning, you'll return to the Evangelical church in Gușterița, where you'll conclude this memorable experience in the midst of nature.
