For Saturday, November 29, we have prepared an easy hike, with many secular oak trees. We start from Mediaș by train, but the official start is in Sighișoara, from where we start on Via Transilvanica, direction Stejărenii. We make a long stop on the Breite Plateau, to visit Bunicu, a 700-year-old oak tree, and to tell a little about the pastures - forests.
Then we continue our walk to the village of Apold, where we visit the fortified church and then return to Sighișoara by car.
