Maramures Activ Tour

This tour is made especially for nature enthusiasts and hikers passionate for less beaten trails and solitary routes. The hiking holiday takes place in Rodnei National Park in Maramures. The highest mountains of the Maramures region, Rodna Mountains, are the eastern end of an outlying arm of the Carpathians. This arm of the Carpathians has had the effect of isolating Maramures from the rest of Romania and the world. Most subsequent invasions have passed it by, leaving its population little changed in millennia. Consequently, this is a region that has a greater tendency to maintain traditional ways than any other region of Romania. This national park shelters iconic mammals like the brown bear and the mysterious lynx, rare birds. The tour is an active one where you can expect to do long hikes, but we will make sure that the effort is rewarded with a day of relaxation afterward. Spend with a local guide 5 days of a responsible hiking holiday in one of the most beautiful natural parks.
