Description

Sitting on the outskirts of Cluj-Napoca, heading out for a half-day mountain biking experience in the Faget Forest is the perfect way to escape the city and experience some local nature!

After meeting up in the morning and checking out our gear, we'll get on our bicycles and begin to cycle through the forest. Depending on the skill level of the group and what you are interested in doing, we can head out on a variety of different routes.

Among the favourite options for visitors to this scenic forest is to gradually climb uphill until breaking through the tree line and enjoying phenomenal views of Cluj-Napoca as well as the surrounding Carpathian Mountains.

Afterwards, it's a fun race back down to the car park, where our trip will come to an end.

Afterwards, if you're interested, we can head to a nearby pub to enjoy some  local food and beer (not included) before saying good bye and heading back to Cluj-Napoca.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this fun and exciting half-day mountain biking adventure in the Faget Forest, juts outside of Cluj-Napoca.

If you like the look of this trip, but are looking for something a little bit longer, then I think you may also enjoy my full-day mountain biking tour of the Faget Forest!

Mountain Guide

My name is Catalin. I am based in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. I am a passionate skier, mountain biker, climber and photographer, certified as a Mountain Guide, Ski Instructor, MTB Guide and Camp Leader.

I've been skiing all my life, since I was around three years old, and I couldn't imagine winter without ski or without the cold days on the white slopes. Mountain biking is the sport that fills in the summer days, when snow is missing. Shredding up and down the trails keeps the mind focused and the muscles fit.

Climbing is what challenges me to overcome my limits and makes me want to become better and better. And, last, but not least, photography is how I try to capture the beauty of nature and people and share it with everyone else.

I am trying to seed my passions in the hearts of youngsters and when I am not guiding I am working with children in MTB, ski, media creation or adventure camps.

I am looking forward towards meeting you so that I can share with you the great beauty of the Romanian mountains and offer you a memorable adventure.

Absolutely excellent trip! Guide Cata was spectacular at assessing our skill level and picking the perfect trail. We would love to travel again with him. The trails around Cluj are great for MTB. I was less impressed with the ExploreShare interface. It was clunky to use and I wasn’t sure if messages were getting through. I did manage to find an excellent guide and experience, so I guess it all worked.
