Cycling & Mountain Biking in Romania 2025
The Carpathian Mountains, the wild forests of Transylvania, and rural areas provide a wonderful setting for cycling
Best time: May–mid-October
The beauty of the natural landscapes of Romania is perfect for biking. The most stunning trails run through the Carpathian Mountains, Transylvanian forests full of game, and serene rural paths. One can even cycle through medieval Saxon towns and villages with fortified churches, castles, and traditional wooden architecture or ride along the mighty Danube across its lush delta vegetation. Due to the weather conditions, Romanian hills, prairies, marshes, and mountains are mostly explored by cyclists from early May through mid-October.
