By bicycle from Viscri to Buneşti

Kick off your ride in Viscri, a charming Transylvanian village known for its UNESCO-listed fortified church and lovely cobblestone streets. You’ll leave behind the pastel Saxon houses as you roll north, mostly along peaceful cycleways and rustic tracks—perfect terrain for a gravel or mountain bike.

This 14 km route gently winds through meadows and woodland, with a steady climb and some fun descents; you’ll gain and lose about 300 meters, soaking up views of rolling hills and wide skies the whole way. Surfaces here adventure from gravel and packed earth to slices of asphalt, so be ready for a bit of a mixed bag!

As you reach Buneşti, another quiet Saxon village, treat yourself to a break. If time allows, check out Buneşti’s fortified church, another reminder of the region’s rich history. All in all, this is a ride for those who love rural landscapes and want a taste of authentic Transylvania, blending culture, nature, and plenty of fresh air.
