Dear nature lovers,
We invite you to a family hike, on the segment of the Via Transilvanica that connects Richiș to Biertan.
The route is easy to medium, the medium parts being the beginning and end – the slopes. They are not steep, but they require a little more attention. Most of the length of the route takes place on the hilltop and is very similar to a walk through the park.

Date: 29.03.2026
Meeting time: 9.30
Meeting place: the parking lot of the Hobby Mobila furniture store, at the exit from Sibiu towards Agnita (Ștefan cel Mare str.) - or directly at Richiș - ask the organizers for information.
