Hi everyone! 👋
My dad and I will be visiting Romania for two weeks from May 20 to June 6, and we’re planning to spend one week cycling in Transylvania. We’ll be riding two Brompton folding bikes and looking to do a loop starting and ending in Brașov.
We're not hardcore cyclists – we enjoy a scenic ride, good food, and soaking in the local vibes.
We're hoping for daily distances of around 70–80 km, and we're okay with some light hills but would prefer to avoid heavy climbs if possible (especially with luggage).
We’d love your recommendations on:
- Nice routes/roads that are bike-friendly (preferably not too much traffic)
- Villages/towns worth visiting
- Anything we should know or avoid (bears? 😅)
Also, if anyone knows if bike shops in Bucarest sell cardboard boxes for packing Bromptons for the return flight, that would be a bonus!
Thanks so much in advance – we’re super excited for this trip! 🇷🇴🚲❤️
