Dear hikers,
On Sunday, April 6th, we will hike between two fortified churches like two hidden gems.
We will start with the fortified church in Curciu, where we will take a guided tour and marvel at the paintings in the International Gothic style. Then we will climb the hills, enjoy 360-degree views, and head north to the neighboring village of Băgaciu. We will descend a gentle slope to visit the church and its Renaissance pews.
