Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Azuga à Sinaïa

This scenic cycling route starts in Azuga, a charming mountain town known for its ski resorts and sparkling mineral water. From there, you’ll make your way south to the famous resort city of Sinaia, home to the fairytale-like Peleș Castle. The ride covers about 26.5 km with plenty of ups and downs—expect a serious challenge, with over 900 meters of climbing and a thrilling descent of about 1,170 meters.

Your ride winds mostly along quiet roads and forest tracks, with about half the route on smooth asphalt and the rest a mix of gravel, dirt, and ground—so a sturdy bike is your friend here. You’ll pedal past dramatic mountain scenery, deep woods, and maybe even spot wildlife if you’re lucky! As you approach Sinaia, treat yourself to the views and maybe a post-ride coffee at one of the town’s cozy cafés. This route is a perfect taste of the Carpathians for cyclists craving both adventure and beautiful landscapes.
