More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A rumble of engines breaks Bucharest's morning calm as a convoy of new Suzuki Jimnys slips onto the highway and points north. Within an hour the city gives way to rolling fields, then to steep, grassy flanks—the Baiului Mountains unfurling like a challenge that nudges you forward. Tracks climb through beech forests, cross rocky cols and open onto ridgelines where wind pushes at your jacket and valleys fall away in layered greys and greens.

Layer for quick temperature changes
Mountain weather shifts fast—pack a windproof layer and a light insulating mid-layer even on warm days.
Secure loose items

Valid driver's license
Required if you plan to drive one of the Jimnys during the tour.

Provide grip and protection when stepping out onto rocky or muddy terrain.
Windproof jacket
Light shell to block gusts on exposed ridgelines and keep you comfortable during stops.
