Information for a cycling trip from Poland to Armenia via Romania and Georgia
Hi there! Every year, we go on a cycling trip abroad with panniers, lasting about two weeks. We stay in step lodgings, guesthouses, and the like. We mostly take small roads and really enjoyed northern Montenegro and Albania last year.

We’d love to hear from anyone who’s cycled in these countries before: tips on finding quiet roads, highlights of the regions we’ll pass through, how welcoming the locals are, and so on. Thanks in advance for any replies or exchanges!

Romania with the wind in my face
Hi there, In spring 2023, I headed to Romania by motorcycle. I’ve been going there for over 20 years—by car, bike, and plane—and I’ve really fallen for this country. I feel so at home there. The big difference this time? I had all the time in the world, no constraints at all.

I left the Paris region (IDF) and headed for the Sundgau, avoiding the motorways. I know a little hotel tucked away in the countryside there. The next day, I followed the Swiss border on a small road along the Lucelle River, which acts as the frontier. Around a bend, you cross to the other side and then back into France—kind of fun.



I crossed Switzerland via the motorway—I know the route well, so no sightseeing. I arrived in Austria, which I also know pretty well, and took the Arlberg Pass. It was deserted, everything was closed, and there was still snow.



The weather wasn’t great—it was raining—so I stopped for the night at a remote inn. Perfect for drying off! I set off in the rain the next morning and kept going. Gradually, the rain stopped. I took a detour through the Trentino-Alto Adige region and the Sella Pass. Up there, it was rain, snow, and a bit of black ice in a tunnel (wind + rain + sub-zero temps = skating rink).



I arrived in Burgenland to see the famous giant glass-and-metal grape cluster, the largest in Europe. The region is hilly, full of tiny roads, and covered in vineyards.



Burgenland



Then into Slovenia.



I stopped for the night at a winegrower’s B&B perched on a ridge straddling the Croatian border. The welcome was fantastic—I spent the evening with the owners and their friends who arrived later. The white wine was amazing! The next day, I hit the road again.



I headed for Vukovar, on the Danube, a symbol of resistance during the Balkan War. I found a really comfortable B&B by the river and stayed for two nights to explore. What a strange monument!



I visited the water tower, which you can go inside—it’s riddled with bullet holes. There’s an exhibition inside. I also checked out a museum of equipment used during the Balkan War. Since it’s in a barracks, it’s guarded. I asked if I could bring my motorcycle in, and a Croatian officer came to meet me and gave me permission, along with a sticker to put on the bike. I met some fellow bikers from Marseille riding beautiful vintage bikes.



I left Vukovar following the Danube toward Serbia. The rain caught up with me. The roads were busy, with construction causing mud everywhere and crazy truck drivers. At one point, I cut through the construction zone! I stopped for coffee in a village—it had a *Deliverance* vibe. Total silence when I walked in, and the owner gave me a suspicious look. Finally, the Romanian border... and the sun came out! The Romanian customs officer asked if I had anything to declare. "Yes—just happy to be back in Romania!" I stopped for the night at a *cabana* (mountain hut) lost in the forest. Chaos ensued—a tourist! So they rushed to get supplies, quench my thirst, give me a room, and then the owner took charge: țuică (plum brandy), omelette, beers... Everyone bent over backwards to make me happy.

I love these Romanian roads!







I passed through Băile Herculane, which isn’t as beautiful as it once was—everything’s run-down. What are they waiting for to restore this *Mittel Europa*-style spa town that’s still active?

I stopped at the birthplace of Constantin Brâncuși.



Keep your eyes peeled on the roads!



Via the Jiu Valley, I arrived in Craiova to visit my in-laws. A few days of laughs and outings. I picked up my wife at the airport.

My favorite brand



We took a trip to Horezu, a village famous for its beautiful ceramics.





After those few days together, I dropped my wife off at the airport, and the next day, I set off for Dobrogea, a region split in two after the war with Bulgaria. The road was dull—flat as far as the eye could see—but the sun was out. I followed a military convoy of about fifty vehicles, with orders not to overtake. I stopped by the roadside for some homemade *ciorbă* (sour soup). That evening, I stopped in Călărași. The next day, I crossed the Danube by ferry. There are two ferries—one goes to Bulgaria, the other stays in Romania.



A priest on board came over to bless the motorcycle, the rider, and the ferry. I arrived on the other side with some traffic. Dobrogea



It’s like that all the way to the Bulgarian border—no restaurants, hotels, or gas stations, just old collective farms. And it’s the same in Bulgaria! I stopped at Adamclisi, site of a major battle in Moesia (now Dobrogea) in 101–102 BC, one of Trajan’s most important Dacian Wars.



An oasis in the agricultural steppe.



I arrived at the Bulgarian border.



A customs officer—built like a weightlifter, shaved head, thick neck, and as square as a truck—saw me take this photo and came over to ask me to delete it. I did... but I didn’t empty the trash! The weather turned stormy. I arrived in Balchik, a resort town where the last queen of Romania, Maria, used to vacation.

The Black Sea and the Bulgarian coast



The weather wasn’t great, so I headed back to Romania to follow the coastline. Constanța and its casino



Then came the seaside resorts—just as ugly as each other: Neptun, Mangalia, Eforie Nord, Eforie Sud. I stopped at a B&B near the Danube Delta, in some random village. The welcome was nice. The next day, I headed for Dunavățu de Jos, the last stretch of tarmac in Romania. After that, it’s the Danube Delta. The area is flat and sandy, with typical houses featuring reed roofs.



Now, I’m following the Ukrainian border. I passed the last active quarantine station in Europe. I came across a funeral procession—it’s customary to honk as you pass. If you’re on foot, you cross yourself. When I arrived in Galați, it was raining. I boarded the ferry in a downpour. On board, we were packed in like sardines. As soon as the ramp hit land, the drivers rushed out, revving their engines and honking. I let them go and exited calmly. I continued toward the Székely Land. These are Hungarians who, back in the day, were border guards for the king. They’ve kept their own script (it looks like runes), their flag, and their independence streak. For them, Romania is Hungarian, despite the Treaty of Sèvres in 1920. There are still clashes between Romanians and Székely Hungarians now and then. Since I speak a bit of Romanian, I used it—logical, since it’s the language there—and it put everyone in a good mood! Székely flag



I passed through Bicaz Chei, arriving via one of my favorite kinds of roads. During a break, a bear came to check me out from a distance.



Bicaz Chei



I arrived at the "Heart of Jesus" monument, built by public subscription to thank God for sparing the village from severe flooding.



Now, I’m heading west—next stop, Transylvania, with the in-laws. On the road



Roma house



Bozorka—a Hungarian specialty... 450 grams of meat!

I made it back to France without any issues, already thinking about my next trip. Actually, I just got back from one!

Romania Weather in May
Hi everyone, I’m supposed to be heading to Romania (Bucharest & Transylvania) next week for 10 days, and I’m really worried about the weather. Every day, the forecast seems to show rain (Sibiu, Brașov, Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca). But it’s never clear like "rain all day"—it looks like a mix of sunny spells, rain, and clouds. So I was wondering, for those who know Romania well, what’s the weather generally like in Transylvania in spring? Is it common to have mountain thunderstorms in the late afternoon, or is it more persistent rain that lasts almost all day? Thanks in advance! 🙂

Bike Route Ideas in Austria Toward Hungary
I’m leaving from Munich in May to reach Bran (Dracula’s Castle in Romania). The plan: crossing Austria, Hungary (via Lake Balaton), and Romania (through the Carpathians). The idea is to avoid following the EuroVelo 6 route.

Do you have any route ideas in Austria to get to Hungary? I get the feeling there aren’t many options for taking secondary networks, and most routes follow valleys carved out by major road axes.

Thanks for your ideas and experiences biking in Austria!

Cheers,

Recap of our family trip to Romania in 2019
Hi everyone,

Better late than never—I’m finally getting around to sharing our trip to Romania from last year.

Before I start, I have a personal history with this country: I lived there in 2004 for three and a half months during a student internship. I still have friends there and a decent grasp of Romanian. That helps. But more than anything, I’ve grown attached to the country. It’s well-deserved—Romania gives back just as much. That said, when I talk about it, maybe I see things differently than someone visiting for the first time.

This was my third trip to Romania. This time, I brought my wife and our two daughters. After years of wanting to take a family trip there, this was finally the right moment. My wife wasn’t exactly thrilled at first—she’d been hesitant for years. But she ended up loving it, and we’ll definitely go back together. For our 6- and 8-year-old girls, the trip was fascinating in so many ways: the sights, learning about communism and totalitarian regimes, the Roma community, how different religions coexist, the Saxon minorities...

We landed in Bucharest last July. We spent two and a half weeks in the country. We took off from Toulouse early in the morning and arrived at Bucharest airport around noon. We flew with Lufthansa because it’s a solid airline and the cheapest option we found.

We rented a car. I don’t remember the rental agency’s name, but we got scammed a bit. We’d booked insurance through Booking, but when we arrived, we couldn’t print a credit card receipt. The issue? We only had debit cards, not credit cards (or vice versa), and without one, we couldn’t pick up the car without buying their on-site insurance. It was buried in the fine print—I’d read it but naively assumed a gold card would work. So, we had to take extra insurance. Basically, we threw 120 € in insurance fees out the window. Still, we got a Dacia Logan, and it ran like a dream the whole trip.

Here’s our rough itinerary: - Bucharest Airport => Sinaia => Brasov - Brasov => Viscri => Sighișoara => Sovata - Sovata => Bicaz Gorge => Iași - Iași => Bucharest

**Sinaia** We started in Sinaia, in the Carpathians. It’s an old Romanian vacation spot from the country’s golden age. A really nice place with great hikes. The mountains are stunning, covered in tall fir trees. There are beautiful buildings and old houses—it’s all very charming. We took the cable car up to the summit (no time to hike with the kids). It’s an old 1960s cable car with two sections (there are also detachable chairlifts). The view from the top is amazing. Then, Peles Castle—a must-see.

**On the road to Brasov** We stayed in a homestay in the village of Purcareni (15 minutes from Brasov by car) through an association called "L’Arbre de Joie." We spent a few days there. The association was founded by a French woman in the 90s and runs local projects. The family we stayed with was Hungarian. The price was around 90 € per day, including breakfast and dinner. The host spoke a little French, and her 16-year-old daughter spoke English fluently. We had great conversations. This family lives like a typical French family—they work at a clinic and a factory, own a car, and have a small chalet in the nearby mountains. From Purcareni, we explored: - **Bran Castle**: The iconic castle. There are way more tourist stalls now than when I first visited in 2004, but it’s still charming and worth seeing. - **Zărnești Bear Reserve**: Interesting—you learn a lot about bears. But it’s expensive, and it’s sad to see these beautiful animals in captivity. - **Râșnov Citadel**: Right near Zărnești. We did Bran, the bears, and this citadel all in one day last year. It’s pretty—you hike up a trail to get there. The view is gorgeous, but the site feels a bit neglected (or not fully restored yet). Some people love it, others don’t, but at least it’s authentic and not some Disneyland with fry stands everywhere. - **Brasov**: Of course! We went twice. It’s beautiful and nothing like what you’d imagine Romania to look like. We hiked up the hill overlooking the city—about 45 to 60 minutes with the kids. The view from the top is incredible, especially over the medieval rooftops. I wasn’t expecting much—I thought we’d see rundown buildings, but the "new" part of town is built farther to the right, so you barely notice it. - One day, we took a horse-drawn carriage (a touristy thing to do for the kids) to our hosts’ second home. It was still really fun. The area is super wild—just a few kilometers from the village, so close to Brasov. We ate *amazingly* with them. Traditional Romanian food is best enjoyed in people’s homes, not restaurants. So, I’d recommend eating at small guesthouses or homestays as much as possible.

**On the road to Viscri** No stops—just straight to Viscri. I found Viscri just as I’d left it in 2004. Maybe a few more tourists, maybe one or two new restaurants. The road still isn’t paved in the village. Viscri is my favorite place in Romania—a simple village with colorful houses. We found a reasonably priced Airbnb and had a great evening with our hosts. They were fascinating people, and we talked about Romania, Saxon minorities, Europe... The next morning, I went for a run and found a trail in the nearby forest. I followed it for a while before turning back. We also visited the fortified church.

**Sighișoara** I’d been there in 2004 and wasn’t particularly moved or impressed. I felt the same way in 2019. But that’s just our take.

**Sovata** In Sovata, we traveled the way I love—arriving around 5 PM with nothing booked and finding a place to stay by asking around. We ended up in homestays for two nights, and both were great. It’s a Hungarian-Romanian thermal spa town. The place is nice but nothing extraordinary, except when you get closer (but not too close) to the thermal complexes. There, you’ll find beautiful mansions and hotels from the early 19th century. It’s touristy, but only Romanians go there. We visited a warm-water lake—it was fun for the folklore, though the water wasn’t exactly inviting. Apparently, there’s another lake higher up that’s so salty you float in it, but we didn’t go. In the afternoon, we took the tourist steam train ("mocăniță" in Romanian). It was a blast—we chatted with people in the carriage. The train covers about 20 kilometers, then turns around (the locomotive detaches, spins, and reattaches). Everyone gets off at the halfway point, where people grill corn on the cob. Then the train heads back. The scenery isn’t breathtaking, but the fields were full of flowers, and the ride was lovely.

**Toward Bicaz Gorge** The next day, we headed to Bicaz Gorge and the Ceahlău Massif in Neamț (pronounced "Nyamts"). We passed through Corund, a village known for local crafts. Whether it’s actually made there or not is always up for debate in a society where cutting corners is common. Still, we found some nice plates, dishes, and souvenirs to bring home. Funny story: I was chatting with a young saleswoman in Romanian and was shocked to realize she didn’t understand me—not because my Romanian was bad, but because she *didn’t speak Romanian at all*. She only spoke Hungarian. Mind-blowing: you’re Romanian and don’t speak Romanian? We crossed a mountain (or big hill) before reaching the Gheorgheni plain—a small town nestled in the mountains, feeling like the end of the world. Was it the season? We saw *so many* storks, and they were *so close*. It was adorable.

**Bicaz Gorge** We stopped at "Lacul Roșu" (Red Lake) to take a boat ride with the kids. (Yeah, we did things we don’t usually do—gotta keep everyone engaged! And maybe that’s why they have such great memories of the trip.) Then, the Bicaz Gorge—one of my favorite spots in Romania. We stayed at Pensiunea Paleu in Bicazu Ardelean, a place I already knew. I think the price for four people, half-board (with delicious home-cooked meals), was around 90 € per day. The rooms are clean and simple, and there’s a big garden with a vegetable patch, a cow, and a pig. Most of the food served comes straight from the garden.

In the afternoon, after much hesitation, we headed to Ceahlău National Park. About 30 minutes by car, we entered the park (after waking up the park ranger, who reeked of booze and was napping). We drove to the end of the road, and then—against all odds—the four of us made it to the summit of Toaca Peak. This peak towers over the surrounding mountains. It was a great hike—starting in the Carpathian fir forests, then crossing a plateau covered in flowers (mid-July). We stopped for a drink at Cabana Dochia before heading up. The summit is a bit unusual because they’ve installed a big metal staircase. It’s steep in places—straight up, and I wouldn’t want to fall. There’s a sturdy railing, though. Even if the "normal route" doesn’t seem too hard. The view from the top is stunning—you can see the entire Carpathian region, vast forests, and the Bicaz Lake below.

**Iași** I used to live in Iași. We stayed with my former internship supervisor and his family. It’s not the first time we’ve crashed at people’s places. In Iași, we visited: - **The Opera House**: A beautiful building from the early 20th century, if I’m not mistaken. Our friends arranged a tour with the firefighters, who let us in and showed us around. It was fun. - **The "Hall of Lost Steps"**: You enter a massive room with stunning woodwork. It’s a huge university library, home to around a million books. The whole place is meticulously decorated. Visiting this room makes you wonder how Romania could have such a grand image. This country, in its golden age, had universities and thinkers. When you build something like this for knowledge and science, you’ve come a long way. - **The Palace of Culture**: This building was completely run-down in 2004 but has since been fully renovated. Where it was once gray, dull, and dirty, it now shines in the sunlight. It’s magnificent.

Beyond these three sights, we explored parks, wandered the city, went treetop climbing, and spent time with friends. Sure, Iași is way over in the east on a map of Romania, but it’s worth the detour.

After Iași, we headed back.

**In conclusion**, we spent three weeks in Romania. Here’s a rough breakdown of expenses (in €, all taxes included): - Flight tickets: 660 € - Car rental for 2.5 weeks: 250 € - Everything else (accommodation, food, activities, etc.): around 1,500 €

All in all, the trip wasn’t exactly cheap—around 2,500 to 2,800 € total. But we had a blast, and that’s what matters.

I had tons of great photos and wanted to share some, but I couldn’t upload them. If anyone’s interested, I can send them along.

Restaurant roumain à Bordeaux et avis sur la cuisine roumaine
hola todos

je viens de découvrir le resto roumain à Bordeaux (il y qu'un seul, d'après ce que j'ai compris)

je serais curieux d'avoir votre avis sur la cuisine roumaine. si vous la connaissez déjà je voudrais savoir votre opinions, et si vous n'avez jamais goûté je voudrais savoir quelles sont vos attentes, a quoi vous pensez si vous voyez en flânant sur les rues de vos villes "Resto roumain", est-ce que vous allez entrer ou non?

je voudrais savoir aussi, à part votre réponse, qu'est-ce que vos ami(e) pourraient penser de cette cuisine roumaine, et cela pour se former une idée plus générale.

je lance ce thread parce que j'ai l'impression qu'on est un peu réticents. serai-t-il "étrangère" ou "roumaine" qui est à la base de cette réticence? bien sur, je peux me tromper, c'est seulement mon avis, suite à des discussion avec Marga, la patronne de ce resto, et suite à des discussion avec mes collègues, qui, la plus part d'eux, seront plus intéressés par une pizza que essayer ce resto.

EuroVelo 6 à partir de Genève jusqu'à la mer Noire et retour depuis Constanta
Bonjour tout le monde, J'espère que tout va bien malgré la crise que traverse notre pays.

Je viens mettre ce post car je souhaite faire l'euro vélo 6 donc partir de Genève et arriver jusqu'à la mer Noire. J'ai déjà trouvé les données KLM pour les utiliser sur l'application Maps Me. Je connais donc le trajet mais je souhaiterais savoir si il est facile de se repérer sur cette euro vélo car j'ai lu certains articles qui disent que parfois cela peut être compliqué. Il y a certains passages vers la fin de ce périple où il y a deux voies ( prendre un bateau). Comment faire son choix ?

Pour les hébergements, je pense partir avec une tente afin de pouvoir profiter du camping et parfois me donner le droit de faire des auberges pour avoir un peu de confort. Pensez-vous que de mai à juin il sera facile pour moi de trouver des logements directement sur place ? Je ne compte pas réserver à l'avance car je préfère être libre et me laisser porter par le vent.

Pour un voyage seule à vélo, vous pensez que je dois avoir des sacoches à l'avant et à l'arrière ? J'ai fait la Via Rhôna et je n'avais que du poids sur l'arrière de mon vélo. Je suis minimaliste donc je ne pense pas avoir beaucoup de poids à transporter !

Une question toute aussi importante : le retour ? Comment depuis Constanta, avez-vous fait pour rentrer ? je souhaite revenir avec mon vélo bien sûr mais je ne sais pas encore par quel moyen. Que me conseillez-vous ?

Merci par avance pour tous vos renseignements. Sophie.

Quel vélo choisir pour l'EV6 jusqu'en Roumanie?
Bonjour à tous,

Je me suis lancée avec une amie, le défi d'aller jusqu'à Costanta en Roumanie, via l'EV6. Nous partions au alentour du 14 juillet 2020 depuis Mulhouse.

Nous sommes toutes les deux extrêmement novices en vélo, j'y passe quand même des heures à chercher des informations. Concernant les aspects techniques du vélo, je crois avoir déjà assimilés le vocabulaire (houhou on commence déjà quelque part!)

Idéalement, il nous faudrait un vélo qui puisse tenir la route jusque la Roumanie (soit environ 3500km). J'ai un budget d'environ 400-500€ (je suis en service civique et mon salaire n'est pas franchement mirobolant!) avec des améliorations possible (mon papa et les ateliers participatifs vont être mes amis!). J'ai noté que des améliorations nécessaires type freins, pneus doivent être envisagés.

Est-ce qu'un RIVERSIDE 900 (Décathlon) ferait l'affaire pour commencer : https://www.decathlon.fr/p/velo-tout-chemin-riverside-900/_/R-p-300794?mc=8405264&c=GRIS ou bien j'ai trouvé ça mais je sais pas ce que ça vaut : https://www.probikeshop.fr/vtc-serious-cedar-hybrid-noir/161648.html?gclid=CjwKCAiAx_DwBRAfEiwA3vwZYtO6DO9jEFsySzGMfuU3yjrecy7X-n-Zb4XZDp_cciyxKctwtDigWhoCtAgQAvD_BwE&gshop=FR&ef_id=CjwKCAiAx_DwBRAfEiwA3vwZYtO6DO9jEFsySzGMfuU3yjrecy7X-n-Zb4XZDp_cciyxKctwtDigWhoCtAgQAvD_BwE:G:s

Je projette un voyage à moto, à une date qui reste à définir (sans doute en septembre), vers la Roumanie, et plus précisément les routes Transfagarasan et Transalpina. La perspective d'y aller depuis la Belgique et d'en revenir à moto n'est pas vraiment un obstacle, mais prolonge le séjour de façon conséquente, et occasionne également plus de risques et de fatigue. Je recherche des alternatives : - soit envoyer la moto vers la Roumanie, et la rejoindre en avion ; - soit charger la moto sur une remorque et rejoindre la Roumanie en voiture + remorque. Laisser voiture et remorque dans un lieu sûr si possible, et effectuer une boucle pour y revenir en fin de séjour. Y a-t-il d'autres solutions ? Avez-vous déjà une expérience qui pourrait m'aider à faire mon choix ?

D'avance merci pour vos réponses.

Philippe

Affiner mon itinéraire entre Budapest et Bucarest (à vélo)
Bonjour, cet été nous projetons avec des amis de faire Budapest-Bucarest pendant 2 semaines, à environ 100km/j. Un trajet que nous ne connaissons pas du tout. J'ai relié ces 2 villes avec BRouter pour avoir un 1er aperçu, la trace donnée fait 1100km, nous comptons en faire environ 1500km. Pour ceux qui connaissent, par où passer, que voir entre ces 2 villes pour ajouter 3 à 400km à la trace ? Ou pourquoi pas totalement modifier l'itinéraire si c'est judicieux ?



Le lien (laisser le temps à BRouter de charger la trace) : http://brouter.de/brouter-web/#map=7/45.740/21.072/osmfr, route-quality&lonlats=19.039307,47.501525;26.103516,44.439959

Merci !

Trip en camping-car et en famille en Roumanie: une première!
Bonjour, pour changer des traditionnelles vacances au camping et pour ouvrir nos esprits à la différence, nous prévoyons un trip de 15 jours en direction de la Roumanie pour nos prochaines vacances (2020). La location du camping car est en bonne voie ! ce sera cependant une première pour nous, alors de nombreuses questions se posent, qui en soulèveront surement d'autres 😮 on ne souhaite pas trop prévoir afin de laisser place à la surprise mais nous ne souhaitons pas perdre de temps sur l'aspect pratique : lieu pour la nuit principalement (notre périple n'est pas très long) nous partons à 6 : 2 adl et nos 4 enfants ( 15-8 ans) Qu'en est il du stationnement pour la nuit ? Nous ferons des arrêts avant d'arriver à Brasov, sans savoir réellement où, ni combien de temps ? Allons nous faire vite pour arriver ou prendre le temps de découvrir ?

Bref, toutes vos astuces et retours d'expérience seront les bienvenus. Nous sommes totalement novices.

Au plaisir de vous lire.

Généalogie roumaine, traduction
Bonjour, Je suis à la retraite et j'ai commencé mon arbre généalogique. Ma grand Mère qui est roumaine a correspondu avec sa famille durant toute sa vie. Hélas, elle ne nous a pas transmis sa langue. Donc je ne peux décrypter les courriers. Ce serait un grand bonheur si vous pouviez m'aider et je vous en remercie vivement par avance.

Ps je transmet une lettre ancienne à cette demande. Je n'ai envoyer que le recto de la lettre
