Description
Explore the Carpathian wonders on a day trip from Brașov. Visit the Bison Valley, Urlătoarea Waterfall, Lake Siriu, the Mud Volcanoes, and the Trovants with a guide.
Begin your day with a relaxed departure from Brașov, and head to the picturesque land of Vama Buzăului. Visit the Valea Zimbrilor Natural Reserve, one of the few places in Europe where you can see the European bison, the continent's largest land mammal, in its natural habitat.
Step into a landscape that seems straight out of a storybook, with dense forests and peaceful meadows. Learn about the reintroduction of bison in the Carpathians, their behavior, and their essential role in the ecosystem.
Next, head to the Urlătoarea Waterfall, a natural gem just a few steps from the reserve. The crystal-clear waters tumble over rocky steps, creating a visual and auditory spectacle that instantly revitalizes you. It's a perfect spot for "wow" photos and to feel the pure energy of the mountains.
Continue to the Siriu Lake, a reservoir with unreal blue waters, surrounded by wooded slopes and dramatic rock formations. Siriu is where nature combines tranquility with grandeur, and the views from the lake's edge are cinematic. This stop fills your soul with calm and your camera with spectacular shots.
Then, visit the Mud Volcanoes, a rare geological phenomenon in Europe, where gas bubbles push cold mud to the surface, creating a landscape that seems from another planet. Craters, cones, gray-silver areas – a lunar "mini-desert" that fascinates all visitors. Learn about the mechanisms of the phenomenon, their formation, and why this place is considered a natural unique.
Finally, head to the famous Trovants, also known as "growing stones." These stone formations are the result of geological processes millions of years old. Their strange, almost extraterrestrial shapes create an unreal setting. It's a place where science intertwines with legend and imagination.
