Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Sybin do Cârţişoara

Ready for an adventurous ride? Start your journey in Sibiu, a vibrant Transylvanian city known for its charming old town, colorful houses, and lively squares. From here, you’ll pedal southeast towards Cârţişoara—gateway to the famous Transfăgărășan road and the beautiful Făgăraş Mountains.

The route covers just over 65 km, with plenty of ups and downs (expect nearly 830 meters of climbing!). You’ll be riding through a real mix of surfaces—think gravel, dirt tracks, and scenic, quiet backroads, with only the occasional stretch of asphalt. In fact, more than half of your route ventures into unpaved territory, so a gravel or mountain bike makes sense.

Enjoy peaceful countryside views, rustic villages, and forested stretches as you wind closer to the mountains. Once you reach Cârţişoara, take a moment to explore this historic village—a perfect launch pad if you’re feeling brave enough for the Transfăgărășan climb! All in all, it’s a laid-back ride that's big on scenery and low on traffic—perfect for a day’s adventure.
