Set off from the lively heart of Cluj-Napoca, a city famous for its student vibe and cool arts scene, and head east toward Târgu Mureş—itself known for both its striking medieval fortress and vibrant mix of Hungarian and Romanian cultures. This ride's just under 120 km, making it a solid full-day adventure (or a leisurely overnighter if you want to soak up the scenery).

You’ll weave through rolling Transylvanian hills, with plenty of climb and descent (over 2000 meters each way!), passing through small villages and open countryside. Expect mostly rural tracks and quiet back roads—a dream if you like escaping traffic—though be prepared for mixed surfaces; only around a fifth of the route is true asphalt, with the rest a blend of gravel, dirt, and unpaved paths.

Take breaks to admire the landscape, and bring supplies, as rest stops may be few in the quieter stretches. Arriving in Târgu Mureş, reward yourself with a stroll through the fortress or a coffee in the old town. This route is perfect for adventurous cyclists who appreciate a bit of challenge and a lot of Transylvanian charm!
