The tour's sights
History
Resculum Roman fort
A Roman fort on the limes of Dacia Porolissensis, near Bologa — fortification remains and the stories of the legions that guarded the empire's frontier.
Viewpoint
Măgura Morlacii
The tour's viewpoint — a wide panorama over the hills and forests of the Apuseni. The best spot for a break and an unforgettable photo.
Food
Sâncraiu ice cream
The sweet stop of the route: the artisanal Sâncraiu ice cream, legendary in the area. The perfect reward after the kilometres pedalled.
Photo
The lavender field
A purple field as far as the eye can see — the favourite stop for summer photos. Come in late summer, when the lavender is in bloom.
History
Sâncraiu bike path
You pedal along the old railway where a steam locomotive once ran, now turned into a bike path — a smooth, straight route with a touch of times gone by, among the hills.
Nature
The 7 colours of the earth
A spectacular geological formation, with layers of earth in different shades — a rare landscape, hidden deep along the difficult route.
History
Bologa fortress
The ruins of the medieval Bologa fortress, standing guard over the Crișul Repede valley. Stone walls and a view worth the climb.
Tradition
The water mill and Mill Museum
A traditional water mill, a testament to the village's bygone life. A quiet stop, with stories about how wheat was once ground.
Nature
Scrind dam
The Scrind dam and lake, an oasis of calm hidden between the mountains. Emerald-green water and forest all around — the reward of the hard route.
