In bici da Braşov a Săcele

This scenic ride takes you from the vibrant heart of Brașov to the charming town of Săcele, about 20 km south. Starting off in Brașov, you’ll pedal out past beautiful medieval architecture—don’t miss a glimpse of the iconic Black Church as you roll through. The route meanders mostly along quiet and access roads, offering a pretty relaxed pace with just over 140 meters of gentle climbing, so it’s friendly for most cyclists.

You’ll experience a mix of surfaces—primarily paved and asphalt—but be prepared for a little adventure, as unpaved patches and missing sections mean you might hit the occasional rough spot (consider sturdy tires if you have them). You’ll pass through some leafy outskirts and open countryside, with mountain views reminding you why this area is a Romanian cyclist favorite.

Arriving in Săcele, you’ll notice its history as a traditional gateway to the Carpathians, and it’s known for its rich multicultural heritage. It’s a lovely spot to relax with a coffee before heading back or exploring further. Bring your camera—the journey is just as photogenic as the destinations!
