In bici da Cluj-Napoca a Ciurila

Ready for an adventure? This cycling route takes you from the heart of Cluj-Napoca, the buzzing capital of Transylvania, all the way down to the peaceful village of Ciurila. The journey is just under 20 km, but don't be fooled—it's a real workout, with almost 600 meters of climbing! You’ll leave behind Cluj’s cafes and historic squares, heading south through rolling countryside.

The ride is a mix of surfaces—expect everything from smooth asphalt to rustic tracks and even some ground paths. About half the route is missing surface info, so be prepared for surprises! It’s a good idea to bring a sturdy bike, especially with long stretches on quieter roads and scenic tracks. The views are totally worth the sweat, climbing towards a max elevation of 825 meters before a gentle descent to Ciurila—a laid-back village known for its traditional vibe and nearby lakes.

Take a snack, snap some photos, and soak up a different pace of life at the end of your journey. Enjoy the ride!
