Anii Drumeției, Sibiu Transylvania Tour Guide
A hike not even 30 km away from Sibiu, in one of the most photographed villages in the Hârtibaciului Valley.
The tour starts from the vicinity of the fortified Church of Hosman and goes up to the south, in the direction of the village of Glâmboaca located on the banks of the Olt river. Arriving at the top of the hill, we will admire the panorama of the majestic Făgăraș Mountains and, after a short break for a snack, we will continue a little to the east in the direction of the village of Fofeldea, then we will turn north to return, on a path through the forest, to Hosman.
For those who heroically resisted to the end, we will have a local culinary surprise to delight them at the end
hiking.
The hike is suitable for people with minimal physical condition and children.
