Come on an authentic fall hike on Sunday, October 22, starting at 1 p.m. We will discover the banks of the Olt and admire the Făgăraș Mountains. A walk to the Hills of Transylvania, with a picnic on the hill.
The stories and the picnic are provided by Elena Daniela Graură, our friend who will bring us wonderful dishes and tell us how we can reduce our impact on nature, without too much packaging, which we take with us in our backpacks when we go for walks or hikes on the hill or why not, right up on the mountain.
To all those who want to join us, families with children, young or old, hikers and tourists from the Sibiu and Brașov area, we are waiting for you with great joy!
