Dear hiker,
Just a few steps from Sibiu, the Transylvanian highlands offer you a gentle and open landscape, perfect for a spring hike. The hills between Gușterița and Hamba preserve the natural charm of the region – green meadows, easy paths and wide panoramas towards villages with Saxon influence.
The destination is Hamba, an authentic Saxon village, a place of legends, with a well-preserved fortified church, traditional houses and households that preserve the taste and lifestyle of yesteryear.
Upon arrival, selected local tastes await you: pita cu chisătura, bacon, local cheese, zacuscă, sausages, mashed beans with onions, the most delicious donuts, juice and coffee
