Azuga to Buşteni
This ride takes you from Azuga, a charming mountain town nestled in the Prahova Valley, to the bustling resort town of Bușteni, both framed by stunning Carpathian scenery. Covering about 17 km, this route is a real adventure, mixing asphalt roads (about half the trip) with stretches of gravel, unpaved tracks, and woodland paths.
Expect a challenging ascent at the start (you’ll climb over 560 meters!), but once you’ve reached the route’s high point at 1433 meters, enjoy a thrilling descent into Bușteni—keep your eyes peeled for sweeping views of the Bucegi Mountains, maybe even a glimpse of the iconic Caraiman Cross.
The journey is mostly on quiet roads and tracks, affording plenty of peace and mountain air. In Azuga, you start near ski slopes and wineries, and finish in Bușteni, famous for outdoor adventures and as the gateway to spectacular hiking trails. Don’t forget to stop for a photo or two—you’re cycling through some of Romania’s most breathtaking landscapes!
