What To Expect
Your day begins with a personalized bike fitting in Brasov. Once you're ready, we’ll pedal toward Cristian, a village where history comes alive. You'll admire charming 19th-century Saxon houses and visit the 12th-century Fortified Church, a resilient monument of Transylvanian heritage.
Leaving the village, we enjoy a scenic, twisting 4 km climb toward Holbav. With the help of your e-bike, this ascent feels effortless, allowing you to focus entirely on the stunning mountain scenery and snap photos without losing your breath.
After a quick break for refreshments, we leave the asphalt for a picturesque gravel road through a quiet valley. You’ll ride along a mountain river and catch a glimpse of traditional life, where locals still work their land much like they have for generations. It’s a peaceful, honest look at the Transylvanian countryside.
As we reach the high plateau, you’ll truly appreciate the power of the e-bike. We’ll glide up the final steeper sections to reach the foothills of Măgura Codlei, offering spectacular 360-degree views over the rolling hills. We’ll end the journey with a fun, long descent back toward the valley, returning to Brasov energized and inspired.
