Overview

What do giants have to do with ravens, in an ancient monastery carved into the rock? We don't have all the answers, but we can learn about these mysteries on the spot, in an exceptional natural setting.

And so prepared, we travel on the famous mountain road that became the star of the Top Gear show to see the Carpathian brown bears. We’ll have some stops on the way, as well as a lunch break in the middle of Vidraru Dam. Did I mentioned the bears?

Included is also a stop at the base of cliff on top of wich stand the real Castle of Vlad the Impaler a.k.a. Dracula.
