What You Can Expect
Traveling with a 4x4 car is the best way to visit and discover the highlands of the Hasmas Mountains, part of the Eastern Carpathian mountain range. Your guide will pick you up from your accommodation with our Suzuki Jimny 4x4 vehicle and set off into the surrounding mountains and forests. Depending on the location of your accommodation (nearby Gheorgheni or nearby Red Lake and the Bicaz Gorges), you will ride up to the 1375 m high Kovacspeter ridge where dispersed summer shelters and the source of the Olt river (one of the most important rivers of Romania) can be found. From here ride on forest roads to Tarcau Glade, to the border of the Bicaz Gorges - Hasmas Mountains National Park begins. Here have picnic from local products and go on a 2.5-3 hour easy trekking tour to the top of the 1707 m high Ecem Peak. From the craggy ridge of the Ecem Mountains you can enjoy the silence and a great panorama over the surrounding mountains. When you get back to the car, continue your trip riding on remote forest routes and through mountain traditional areas to the small dispersed village of Haromkut. Here you can witness the traditional way of living and taste locally raised fresh trouts served by a local family. In the surroundings of the village you may meet horses, sheep and oxen flocks grazing, guarded by shepherds. From Haromkut head to the breathtaking Bicaz Gorges riding along the picturesque Bicajel Valley with wooden houses and haystacks, dense forests and small waterfalls. After admiring the massive gorges and a short walk along Red Lake, drop-off at your accommodation follows.
