Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Predeal do Câmpina

Looking for an adventurous ride through the heart of the Carpathians? This route from Predeal to Câmpina is a fantastic choice for experienced cyclists who love a mix of mountain grandeur and quiet country passages.

You’ll start in Predeal, one of Romania’s best-known mountain resorts. It sits at 1,060 meters, so expect a chilly but fresh start with pine-scented mountain air! The route rolls south for nearly 70 kilometers, mixing steep ascents (over 2,300 meters up!) and rewarding descents, with a max elevation peaking around 1,878 meters. Keep in mind: over a third of the ride is on unpaved or natural surfaces—think ground, gravel, and forest tracks—so a sturdy bike is a must.

The roads wind through forested tracks and quiet rural scenes, with occasional ventures onto more bustling roads. As you descend, you’ll reach Câmpina, known for its charming 19th-century villas and as a gateway to the picturesque Prahova Valley.

Pack snacks and prepare for solitude—this is a true off-the-beaten-path experience, best for adventurous souls and capable bikes!
