In the midle of Brasov, this small mountain has offered a great view from down, but more especially from on top, as you can see all the cities!

I have explored this little mountain on all sides and I can tell you it is worth the effort. You can hike up several paths, past historic ruins or through the woods, or you can take the easy way up in the cablecar. Try to find the old relics, the walls of the medieval fort, the base of the old... More

Tampa mountain is the landmark of Brasov. It offers a nice panorama of the city, but also of the surrounding mountains. If you don't want to go up, there are some nice paths above the old city walls. Don't leave Brasov without a walk in that area!

Refreshing, calm place to visit to digest all the beer and food. Good place to jog or read a book in peace and quite on the calm alley.

Please go up there and you won't be disappointed, for a second when you reach the big letters, you can have the idea you have arrived to Hollywood. :)) The view is wonderful.

If you like walking i say you should go for it. The scenes are lovely and it is best to try not to go there at night because of the bears.

To get to the top you can get the cable car in less than 3 minutes (without counting the queue if any). One way ride costs 6 RON(1.5EUR) and the round trip is 10 RON (2.5 EUR). For kids the price is half. Keep in mind that the last descent is at 17:45. But I personally think that the best... More

I was there last weekend, unfortunately I was in hurry and I had to take the telecabina to reach the top and going back. The small trail was still full of snow so the hike should probably takes 1h30/2h (instead of 1h). At the top there's a nice bar/restaurant. There's a beautiful panorama of the town from there. It was... More
