Gypsy music was played in each restaurant to entertain the guests. In the late 1800s, the band of Solomon (John and William) in Cluj-Napoca/Kolozsvár was the most common. But the Lajos Pongrácz orchestra from Cluj-Napoca/Kolozsvár and the Hamza Miska folk orchestra from Oradea/Nagyvárad also entertained the bath guests here. The gypsy primate of Balog Bandi from Kecskemét (Hungary) and the primate band of Károly Náty from Târgu Mureș/Marosvásárhely had a contract. Already in 1900, the gypsy primate band of Béla Hári from Homorod enlivened the atmosphere, then the orchestra of Jancsi Balogh and Gyuszi Hamza was the service band. Among the singers and actresses I would like to highlight the artist Prielle Kornélia, who was in Borsec/Borszék in August 1873. In 1875, Mrs. Laczkóné Szathmáry, a member of the National Theater, performed with the Society of Michael the Great.

Piatra Niergeș, the nearly 900-meter high passage through the gap crossing the southern ridge of the Ciuc/Csíki Mountains, can be reached by a forest road snaking amid pine trees, connecting the settlements of Cozmeni/Kozmás and Cașin/Kászon. The site of one of the last battles of the 1848-49 revolution and war of independence has become a prominent symbol of the self-preservation struggle of the locals. At the beginning of August 1849, under the command of major János Tuzson of the defense force, who fought under general Sándor Gál, a few hundred Hungarian defence soldiers fought a life-and-death battle here, against an enemy in far superior numbers, defending not only the pass, but the country’s honour. An increasing number of people from the motherland (Hungary) are also coming on pilgrimages, which is partly due to the fact that in 2015, the Nyergestető Historic Café was added to the list of attractions.

Această experiență unică deține o particularitate, care îți va rămâne în amintire pentru totdeauna. Această excursie constă în cunoașterea unui loc secret, din adâncul inimii pădurilor carpatice, în care prin ceața densă ca o pânză de paianjen, care se ridică ușor străpunsă de razele timide de dimineață ale soarelui, își fac cunoscută prezența strofele “cântate” de Cocoșul de munte, parcă desprinse de pe portativul unei simfonii magice. Tandemul dintre lună și soare scoate la iveală arborii, care sunt un paravan în fața liniștii pădurii. Această atmosfera tăcută este tulburată de cântecul Cocoșului de munte, care cu rapiditate coboară din arbori pentru a-și etala penajul deosebit și a cuceri, prin dansul fermecător femela. Când înmugurește salcia, pădurea este pregătită să se imbogățească cu o nouă poveste. Din picurul argintiu al brazilor, în poiana inundată de glasul cocoșului, își fac apariția și găinile de munte provocând și mai aprig dansul masculilor. • Programul excursiei poate suferi modificări în funcție dorințele clientului, condițiile meteo sau situațiile neprevăzute. • Deplasările se fac cu autoturisme special echipate off-road. • Pe tot parcursul excursiei veți fi însoțiți de ghid și personal specializat. • Asigurăm transport de la aeroport (tur-retur).

Challenge your inner explorer with a day trip to the Transylvanian countryside to an off-the-beaten-path location where you can meet talented craftsmen, visit locals in their homes, learn about the local lifestyle, then join a bear watching tour in the wild at dusk. Life in the dispersed mountainous village of Varsag is fascinating and harsh in the same time. People still live like 50 years ago, earning a living from subsistence agriculture and forestry. Many houses are scattered in the heart of nature kilometers away from any facility like a school, a shop or a church. Neighboring houses can be separated from each other by a forest or by a field or meadow. The landscape is breathtaking with numerous mineral spings, crystal clear streams rich in trouts, pastures covered by wild flowers, glimmering waterfalls and dense forests rich in game. Step back in time and experience the greatness and simplicity of the locals living in Varsag, then see wild brown bears in their natural habitat from the security of one of the many wildlife hides operating in the area. Highlights of the tour:  Explore the dispersed mountainous village of Varsag (79 km from Sighisoara)  Get acquainted with the old craft of shingle-roof making and other traditional crafts  Ride on a horse-drawn cart to absorb the local atmosphere  Visit the picturesque 7 m high Csurgoko waterfall  3-hour close encounter with native wildlife in their natural environment  Spot brown bears and possibly other species like deer, wild boar, fox, badger or game birds  Enjoy the Carpathian forests silence and the excitement of waiting for bears to come  Informative, friendly and professional guide  Small group ensures personal service  Flexibility to customize your itinerary to your own preferences  Meet your guide in Odorheiu Secuiesc (47 km from Sighisoara) and ride almost an hour to one of the most dispersed villages of the Eastern Carpathians, to Varsag, where 60% of the area is woody and the inhabitants live kilometers away from each other. Along the way you will ride through colorful Szekler villages by the Tarnava Mare River, pass by the picturesque Zetea dam lake, then wind through a narrow road leading among dense forests until you arrive to Varsag. Here a horse drawn cart will await you to start your discovery tour. Visit a local pub and spend some time interacting with the locals. This isolated community with its friendly and welcoming locals will fascinate you. Enjoy some snacks and local brandy while they tell you about their daily lives and amuse you with some funny stories. According to local legends, the village covers an area comparable in size to the territory of the Romanian capital with only 1500 inhabitants living there. Ride the cart and visit traditional craftsmen like the blacksmith, the shingle-roof maker and a wood carver, watch them at work and listen to their stories. Taste delicious local produce, visit a 100 year old still-functioning watermill, capture the 7 m high Csurgoko waterfall and climb up on a 3 m high look-out tower which offers panoramic views of the dispersed houses and farms and of the surrounding Carpathian Mountains in the distance.  One-hour before dusk an experienced local ranger, will take you with his 4wd car deep into the forests of the Eastern Carpathians which have one of the largest population concentration of brown bears in Romania. Occupy your place in the hide, stay quiet, listen to the forest wildlife sounds and enjoy the excitement of waiting for bears to come. Usually we are successful in seeing bears, but as there are wild animals involved, nothing is guaranteed. If you are lucky, you may observe bears feeding themselves, playing together, courting and mating, and even other species like wild boars, roe deer and red deer, fox, badger and some game birds. After approximately 3 hours watching, head back to the car accompanied by your guide and ride back to Odorheiu Secuiesc. The entire trip takes 9 to 10 hours. Be prepared and wear hiking boots, weatherproof clothing and bring binoculars, camera, extra battery and memory card to record this unique experience.

We are the first to taste the famous mineral water at Băile Homorod/Homoródfürdő, which even has a song written about, and which the whole area uses as drinking water. After a short rest, we set off for the “sacred mountain of the Szeklers”, which even inspired Tamási Áron (well known szekler writer). With our vehicles we climb to an altitude of 1600 meters above sea level, where we are already greeted by an unparalleled panorama. Leaving our cars, we continue our tour on foot. After a 45-minute ascent, we reach the highest peak in Central Harghita, the 1801-meter-high Harghita-Mădăraș/Madarasi-Hargita peak. The view is wonderful, we can see almost the whole of Szeklerland, beautiful mountains, valleys and rivers. On the way home we stop for a short time in Satu Mare/Máréfalva, where we get acquainted with the painted Szekler gates. These gates are among the most important symbols of the Szeklers, but here, in the Odorheiu Secuiesc/Székelyudvarhely region, they are even more characteristic, because people also paint them, so they are unique. Return to the accommodation, dinner.  Program location: Harghita county Destination: Harghita Mountains Micro-region: Odorheiu Secuiesc/Székelyudvarhely Program price: 40 RON / person
