History
Brașov grew as a Saxon trading stronghold, its walls guarding routes to Bran and Râșnov. Bran Castle—linked to Dracula lore—sits a short drive away, drawing on medieval power more than myth.
Conservation
Use only field-approved paint and respect boundaries—paint is biodegradable, and staff handle air canister disposal. Pack out personal trash and keep to designated zones to minimize impact.

Dress dark and layer up
Wear moisture-wicking base layers and darker colors to stay comfortable and less visible on the field.
Protect your hands

Hydrate between rounds
Bring a bottle and sip during resets—short, intense bursts add up, especially on warmer days.
Plan your ride
The Stupini field is a 10-minute drive from central Brașov; taxis or rideshares are the simplest option if you’re not renting a car.
