Local wildlife watching trips in Brasov area, Transylvania, Romania and the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve. Short and longer holidays focused on watching and tracking brown bears, grey wolves and Eurasian lynx, as well as on amazing mountainous landscapes, wild flowers, mountain and wetland birds, rural life and history. Include also a visit to Bran Castle ("Dracula's Castle"), the medieval town of Brasov or a fortified church into your trip. Transform your holiday into an unforgettable experience with us. 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.

Totul a pornit din credința noastră că muntele este o școală bună pentru orice copil. Pentru că am crescut lângă el și îi cunoaștem toate potecile, ne-am hotărât să readucem în prezent taberele copilăriei și să încercăm, prin intermediul lor, să împărtășim cât mai multe dintre minunile naturii. În cei peste 17 ani de activitate, taberele noastre au adunat peste o mie de copii din toată țara, mare parte din ei au dezvoltat o adevărată pasiune asupra muntelui, iar acum, deși adulți cu responsabilitățile aferente vârstei, se întorc la munte de câte ori au ocazia. Ne-am perfecționat, am adunat experiență, am dezvoltat programe noi și diverse care să se adapteze tuturor cererilor. Astăzi, Mountain Adventure a devenit un reper al siguranței, aventurii și cunoașterii pentru cei mici, care se vor decurcăreți, spontani și îndrăzneți. Alături de noi, copiii învață să respecte și să protejeze natura, să se ajute reciproc, să comunice, să-și depășească limitele și să se bucure în siguranță de clipele simple, dar atât de frumoase pe care muntele ni le oferă în fiecare zi.

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.
