We are a team of professionals working in various fields to create memorable holidays for you in the Transylvanian Carpathians and the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve. After 4 years of work within the Carpathian Large Carnivore Project at its completion in 2003 we have decided to share with you the amazing experience of tracking and observing wildlife in its natural habitat and help you understand the importance of its conservation. This way we can continue our work to protect large carnivores and their natural habitats through ecotourism. What do we have to offer? Since 2008 we are able to give you a fair chance at seeing Eurasian lynx and brown bears in the wild, as we started working with wildlife researchers from Brasov area. These activities do not harm the animals and do not put you at risk, as the researchers know the best way to approach the animals and the watching is done at a safe distance. We also work with experts in birds, both in the Transylvanian Carpathians and the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve.

Whether you are interested in the wildlife of Romania, myths and legends related to it, traditional Transylvanian lifestyle, there’s a very simple way to get a first-hand experience: from people that grew up with all that. You can choose one of our tours, day-walks or activities focused on: Bear, wolf tracking and watching The Carpathian Mountains of Transylvania (Romania) are home to impressive numbers of wolves, bears, lynx and other wildlife. Even more impressive, this is in close coexistence with traditional farming activities-something that didn’t really happen in any other parts of Europe. Seeing wild animals in their natural environment is always a challenge ; finding tracks or other signs of them is the very first step to understand the world they live in and their life. We will go looking for these wild animals away from any tourist areas, following shepherds or foresters’ trails, deep into the forest. We can arrange bear-watching from one of the hides owned by Forestry Commission; about 80 % chances to see bears as well as other wildlife (wild boar, Lesser spotted Eagle, Ural Owl); we had sightings of wolves and lynx as well, although they’re rather exceptional. Far from the urban agglomeration, in the complete silence of the forest, tourists have the chance to listen to nature, the noises of wild animals and even to safely follow the dangerous ones from specially arranged shelters. The forests of Piatra Craiului are the ideal habitat of large carnivores, bears, wolves, lynx, deer and deer, and the rocky areas of the black goat. The rich ornithofauna, represented by 111 species identified in the area of ​​the Piatra Craiului National Park, is an ideal resource for bird watching lovers.
