Via Transilvanica

Via Transilvanica is a long-distance tourist route that crosses Romania diagonally from Putna to Drobeta Turnu Severin and is designed for hiking, biking or horseback riding over a distance of 1400 km. The concept is similar to those found all over the world, from the El Camino pilgrimage route to wild North American long-distance trails such as the Appalachian Trail. The route is made up of 7 regions, linking different communities, where the traveller can have  unique experiences in an authentic natural and cultural setting. The "Road that unites", as Via Transilvanica is also called, is well marked with signposts, as well as with individually carved milestones (andesite), which form probably the longest art gallery in the world and accompany travellers throughout the hike.
