Hot air balloon flights around Odorheiu Secuiesc/Székelyudvarhely.
The total duration of the free flight is 3-4 hours, but the flight takes approx. 1 hour. Many people think that hot air ballooning is an adrenaline rush activity, but it is not.

During our trip, we fly with the winds low speed at lower and higher altitudes, where you can admire the wonderful panorama. We wave to the people below us, and try to tear leaves from the top of the trees.
We fly with 2-3 passenger.

At different events we can provide tethered hot air balloon lifting, where we can lift about 30 people in 1 hour up to a maximum height of 30-40 meters.

The gardon is a musical instrument carved from wood. It resembles a cello, but its body is sculpted from a single piece of wood. At the workshop in Boros Valley, visitors can delve into the secrets of creating this instrument and follow the entire process as the wood comes to life step by step, transforming into a true wonder.
Carving the gardon is a fascinating process from start to finish. As the excess material is removed and the final shape of the instrument takes form, each step represents a rebirth of the wood.
During the workshop visit, visitors can see how a Gyimes gardon is made or what tools are used in the workshop.

Toamna când pădurile îmbracă haina pestriță, în adâncul codrului, boncănitul cerbilor răsună printre brazii semeți. Masculii, prin impozanta și strigătul lor, care se izbește de crestele munților și coboară prin văile ascunse de ochii lumii, își cheamă partenerele pentru împerechere sau rivalii pentru luptă.
În tot acest timp, cerbul supranumit ‘’regele pădurii’’, etalându-și trofeul, renunță la meiestuozitatea de care dă dovadă în perioada anului și, concentrându-și forța interioară arată brutalitate împotriva celorlalți masculi, pentru haremul lui.
Imaginile sunt remarcabile, dorința profundă de procreere însufleteste spiritul de prădător de mult uitat.

Program description:
Canyoning is a relatively “young” activity, dating back to the 1970s, but thanks to its dynamic development, it became very popular by the mid-1980s. The technical solutions combine the equipment and techniques used in mountaineering and caving.
Basically, it means descending in a gorge valley with rope. Approach the canyon from above, our direction of travel is only possible downwards and leave it at the bottom.
On these tours we provide the individual and collective equipment for canyoning and the snack. Here, the tour guide is also a canyoning tour guide who is a cave lifeguard and he is responsible for the safety of the members.
The Sec/Száraz Creek (meaning: dry) separates the Hășmașul Negru/Fekete-Hagymás and the Telecul Mare Mountains. It is located entirely in the Bicaz Groge-Hășmaș National Park.
The approach tour is 1.5-2 hours. The terrain is very steep, but beautiful.
The canyoning tour is 4-7 hours. In this canyon, the number of smaller to larger waterfalls exceeds 15. Beautiful and very spectacular tour. The exit from the canyon back to the car is 30-45 minutes.
We recommend this tour only to people who are in good physical condition. It is important for participants to be able to swim. This canyon can really be enjoyed in the spring during the snowmelt period, though the water is very cold at this time.
Important information:
Before each tour, the guest fills out a declaration of their own responsibility and we also recommend accident insurance, even though we have never had an accident before (and we want to preserve this tradition).

Program description:
Canyoning is a relatively “young” activity, dating back to the 1970s, but thanks to its dynamic development, it became very popular by the mid-1980s. The technical solutions combine the equipment and techniques used in mountaineering and caving.
Basically, it means descending in a gorge valley with rope. Approach the canyon from above, our direction of travel is only possible downwards and leave it at the bottom.
On these tours we provide the individual and collective equipment for canyoning and the snack. Here, the tour guide is also a canyoning tour guide who is a cave lifeguard and he is responsible for the safety of the members.
Alb/Fehér Creek (meaning: white) is one of the important side streams of Cheile Bicăjel/Kis-Békás, so the tour starts from the Bicaz Gorge. Approaching the place takes maximum 30 minutes, the series of waterfalls is 2-3 hours long, and after that there will be a little canyon walk in the lower section of the Bicăjel/Kis-Békás Creek. Anyone can sign up for the tour.
Important information:
Before each tour, the guest fills out a declaration of their own responsibility and we also recommend accident insurance, even though we have never had an accident before (and we want to preserve this tradition).
Program location: Harghita and Neamt counties
Destination: Cheile Bicazului-Hășmaș National Park

Guests can also try it out (it's free). Here you can have a snack or sunbathe. We are a ten minute walk from the Ancient Spring. We will tell the story of this and then tell you that it works today as a mofetta, because in the meantime its water has disappeared. We descend to the Pierre Curie source (our only source that also contains radium). It is worth tasting the water of this because it is very delicious.
