Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Cluj-Napoca à Poşaga de Sus

Here’s an adventure for the determined cyclist: start your ride in vibrant Cluj-Napoca, Transylvania’s unofficial capital famous for its historical architecture, bustling cafes, and young energy. You’ll be headed for the hidden mountain village of Poşaga de Sus—a peaceful enclave at the foothills of the Apuseni Mountains.

Be ready for a wild mix: you’ve got about 71 km ahead with more than 2,600 meters of climbing and some serious descending, peaking above 1,000 meters. The journey’s surface throws everything at you—from fresh asphalt (25%) to rough gravel and mountain tracks, and plenty of mystery terrain still "missing" from the map. Most of your wheels will roll on rural tracks; don’t be surprised to share them with the odd sheep or two!

This ride rewards you with sweeping views, forest air, and the authentic quiet of remote Romanian villages. At Poşaga de Sus, you’ll find true tranquility and a gateway to more mountain trails. Remember a sturdy bike, some supplies, and maybe a camera—you’ll want proof you conquered this one!
