Section 3 of the Orient Express Bike Tour
Leaving Budapest we will head southeast, traversing the plains of southern Hungary. As we cross into Romania and Transylvania, the flat days soon end. Not only is Transylvania rich in history and intrigue, its landscapes rival the Alps and Pyrenees for sheer challenge and awe-inspiring views. Throughout our time here we will observe horse-drawn carts, and farmers pitching hay into large mounds that dot the fields like giant furry thimbles.
Highlights
- Thermal Baths in Budapest
- Medieval town of Sibiu
- Climbing the Transfăgărășan Pass
- Palace of Parliament in Bucharest
