Sighișoara and Viscri: Day Trip from Brașov
A walled hilltop town and a one-street Saxon village in one long day. Easy by car, possible by bus, and not worth doing by train in 2026.
Mount Tâmpa and the Cable Car
The forested ridge above the Old Town: a two-minute cable car ride or a 75–90 minute walk to the best view of Brașov.
The Transfăgărășan from Brașov
The road over the Făgăraș Mountains climbs to 2,042 m, two and a half hours' drive from Brașov. Its high section is open only from early summer to the first heavy snow.
What to Eat in Brașov
Sour soups, cabbage rolls, grilled mici, polenta with sheep's cheese and fried cheese doughnuts: what to order, what it costs and how to find a good table.
Where to Eat in Brașov
The three restaurants our team rates as the best in town, what a meal costs, how booking and tipping work, and which parts of the city to head for when you're hungry.
Where to Stay in Brașov: The Areas Compared
Five areas, from the Old Town to the ski resort above the city, with walking times, bus links and what to check before you book.
Zărnești Gorge and Piatra Craiului National Park from Brașov
A gravel forest road runs between limestone walls into Piatra Craiului National Park, 25 km from Brașov. The gorge itself is an easy walk; the climb beyond it is not.
Brașov in Winter: Weather, What's Open and Things to Do
December to February in Brașov: cold nights, short days, a Christmas market in Piața Sfatului and ski slopes a bus ride away.
Skiing Near Brașov: Poiana Brașov, Predeal and Sinaia
Poiana Brașov is a city bus ride from the Old Town. Predeal, Sinaia and Azuga are on the railway line south. Here's how they compare.
