Half-day hiking in Romania: family-friendly trip near Bucegi Mountains

Nestled into the foothills of the mighty Carpathian Mountains, Breaza is the ideal destination for hiking in Romania.

Located only about 100 kilometers (60 miles) north of Bucharest, in the verdant foothills of the Bucegi subrange, the historic village boasts plenty of incredible scenery and natural beauty  to explore on foot.

After meeting up at a pre-determined location in the town, we will transfer to the start of the trip and the real fun begins. We will spend the next four hours hiking over the hills as well as through the meadows and forests of Prahova county.

Among the many highlights of the trip will be reaching a scenic overlook, from which we will descend down to the river bed below, where we will have the chance to see a 500 year old beech tree.

After following the river for a ways, we will begin to ascend back up through the hills until we once again arrive at Breaza, making about a 10-kilometer (6.2 mile) loop.
