Hiking around Poșaga

There are several hiking routes in the surrounding mountains, with peaks reaching up to around 1,600 metres. There are options for different levels of experience, from easy walks through the nearby cow meadows to more challenging hikes across the valley and into the mountains.

For an easy walk, you can simply explore the cow meadow behind the campsite. For something a little more challenging, there is a hunter's hut across the valley that you can hike to. If you are looking for a longer and more demanding hike, you can cross the main river and explore the mountains on the other side. These are the same mountains you can see from the tiny houses. For this, theres a social enterprise called Poteka in the village, that can assist with guiding and equipment.

The surrounding area is wild and relatively untouched, so there is always a possibility of encountering wildlife, including brown bears. Encounters are rare, but it is important to know how to behave if you do come across one.

Swimming in the river

During the summer, you can cool off in the river running through the village. It is a lovely shaded spot, although the water is quite shallow. If you want to swim properly, you can walk a little further down the road to the Arieș River, where there are deeper places to enjoy the water.

Relaxing at the campsite

Of course, you can also simply relax at the campsite. We have a collection of board games that you are welcome to use. Dhalia, our daughter, especially loves playing games, so you might find yourself with a new game partner!
