…about our Transylvanian journey

Ionut,
Do you think that crossing the Transfagarasan in early January will be realistic to plan, or the snow will be too much??
We’d like to do it, to go from Curtea de Agres to Sighisoara.
All team members and the vehicles will be suitably prepared.
What plans do you and Zina have for that period??

Looking forward to hear from you…
Mike Miskis

    Mike, you’re right.
    That’s why i’d like to now Ionut’s opinion.
    Has anyone ever done it in the winter??
    The scenery there is fantastic, it would be a real challenge, and it is by far the sortest way to connect these two destinations…

    Unfortunately it’s not possible in the winter, not even in the spring time.
    The road it’s open only in the summer, between may and september.
    I know lots of beautyful roads near Sighisoara, it’ s my favorite area. You can go from Bucharest to Sibiu to Sighisoara and Brasov and back to Bucharest. You can spend 1 week between Sibiu and brasov, visiting 800 years old villages and going offroad between them.
    I have some gps tracks of the region, if you need it. And maybe i will come with you.
