Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Buşteni do Câmpina

Get ready for an adventure-filled ride from Bușteni to Câmpina! This ~61 km route isn’t your usual Sunday spin—expect a big helping of climbs (almost 2,000m ascent!) and plenty of descending, all while weaving through the Carpathian foothills. The journey starts in Bușteni, a popular mountain town famous for its dramatic views of the Bucegi Mountains and the iconic Caraiman Cross. You’ll roll mostly on unpaved tracks and ground paths, so gravel or mountain bikes are best for tackling this one.

The route is rugged, with only about a quarter paved, so you’ll really feel like you’re out in nature. There are some remote stretches, so pack snacks and water. Once you roll into Câmpina, you’ll find a laid-back town with an interesting oil heritage—it was once one of Romania’s earliest oil refining centers. Overall, this ride is perfect for those who love challenging climbs, wild scenery, and a true off-the-beaten-path vibe.
