Regions
Apuseni
The western mountains — caves, ice, scattered hillside farms, and a quieter kind of Transylvania.
About the region
The Apuseni are the gentler western range — limestone karst, ice caves at Scărișoara, scattered hilltop "crângurile" of the Moți people, and the slow ferment of Țuică in copper stills. Cluj is the urban anchor in the north. Coming soon to our collection.

Cluj-Napoca Old Town
The cultural capital of Transylvania — Hungarian baroque, the country's best food scene.
Padiș Plateau
A high karst plateau in the heart of the Apuseni — sinkholes, springs, scattered shepherd huts.
Salina Turda
A 13th-century salt mine that looks like a Bond villain's lair — boats, a Ferris wheel, underground.
Scărișoara Ice Cave
A 75,000-cubic-metre glacier inside a limestone shaft — Europe's second-largest underground ice block.
Transalpina
The highest paved road in Romania — quieter than Transfăgărășan, more dramatic in places.
