Our Romanian cycling adventure gets off to an incredible start as we get to ride the legendary Transfagarasan, which according to a recent report in Top gear magazine is the World’s best alpine road.
We will hit the road for a superb ride to discover the Transylvanian Highlands. We will pass the lovely Cincu village with its fortified church and ride through the extraordinary landscapes of Transylvania with the Carpathian Mountains providing a spectacular backdrop.
We ride into the Romanian countryside following secondary roads with very little traffic along the following a secondary scenic route along the Hartibaciu valley through the small town of Biertan, one of the most important Saxon villages boasting another impressive fortified church and a UNESCO World Heritage listing
Beautiful ride to the Paltinis resort, this is a superb climb to an old mountain resort which has some challenging parts but is well worth the effort. The return will be an amazing descent right into town and the ‘Open Air Village Museum’ of Sibiu, one of the largest in Central and Eastern Europe.
Our last day riding the “Queen Stage” of our tour is the classic Carpathian Mountain climb and the main challenge of our week in Romania. The Transalpine is known locally as the King's Road and is the highest road in Romania.
Today it is time to say goodbye. After a nice breakfast, we will provide a van transfer onwards to Bucharest or Bucharest Airport for your onward flights. Alternatively, you may enjoy an additional day in Maldaresti or Horezu

Tour Operator
SpiceRoads Cycling believes there's no better way to see the world than by bicycle. Because travel is about the journey and everything it encompasses, never just the destination. Experiencing the moment and place intensely, not chasing the next must-see sight. Discovering new things about the world, and yourself. Then returning home with experiences that remind you of what it means to be alive.
Since 1995 we've been sharing our passion for travelling by bicycle. Curating extraordinary cycle adventures in over 30 countries that give you the opportunity to get up close and personal with remarkable cultures, characters and landscapes in a way that no ordinary tour could.
We offer rides all over the world, on every type of terrain, for all ages and experience. From classic tours to epic cross-country voyages, SpiceRoads adventures are for anyone who believes what we always have…
That nothing good ever happened inside a comfort zone. That immersing yourself in different cultures teaches you things you would never learn in a textbook. That you get out of life precisely what you put in. And that travelling isn't just about seeing the world, it's about changing how you see it.
