Libearty Bear Sanctuary is the biggest brown bear sanctuary from Europeand has the largest surface in the world. Here, 75 bears found a nice home in this 5 stars welfare facility. Here you can see happy bears in their natural environment, after a bad life in circuses and zoo cages. The tours are guided by trained animal welfare experts and the visitors can see brown bears really close.

Beautiful bears, horrible stories of cruelty towards the bears will leave you feeling like humans really don't get it at all. Tour lasts a bout an hour with an informative and interesting guide. There are limited facilities/gift shop.

Dan and Luminita are the most wonderful hosts; if you would like to get a true taste of Romanian life and culture, cooking, and Wilderness, Transylvanian Wolf is a must. We spent two weeks in Romania and can say that Transylvanian Wolf was an absolute highlight. Dan and Luminita are so knowledgeable and are happy to share in Romanian culture and history and folklore. The rooms are charming and feature traditional Romanian wood stoves (a great perk for our fall stay!). Luminita's cooking is out of this world----be sure to try the blueberry brandy! We enjoyed our treks in the Carpathians with Dan very much and learned so much about the local wildlife and culture from his insights (Dan also gives great recommendations for activities in other parts in Romania---he ended up recommending visits to what turned out to be our other favorites activities in Romania---he really knows Romania tourism inside out). Bottom line---if you are going to Romania, stay with Dan and Luminita---you will get a real sense of rural, Romanian life. Thank you to Dan and Luminita for a great stay!

The Zarnesti river cut this deep canyon. Some of the walls of the canyon provide challenging sites for rock climbing. The road climbs gently. The landscape is fantastic.
