The mountains of Transylvania conjure up images of dark serrated ridges and peaks, swirling mists, crumbling castles and above all the image of Dracula. Dracula history is certainly there, there are crumbling castles and a lot of swirling mists but dark and serrated the mountains are not. In fact, Făgăraş Mountains are mostly defined by long green ...
From North: This is probably best approached from Braşov in the west or Sibiu (airport) in the east. A train link between the two drops you at one of the tiny stations not too far from the town of Victoria, called Ucea de Jos. Another option is Voila. From here a bus (eventually) will take you to the town of Victoria. Victoria is a pretty rough pla...

Mountaineering
Moldoveanu Peak represents often an objective for winter ascents. Usually climbers go for the main Făgăraş ridge traverse, and Moldoveanu it's just there, on their way. Whatever route is chosen, from the West or from the East, there is one thing which must be considered: avalanches. Following the summer marked route is not advisable in winter, as it crosses very often directly the large southern slopes of the peaks. Depending on the snow conditions, might be safer to follow strictly the ridge...
