This route is a perfect choice for those who wish to discover the rich nature, the material and spiritual values of Sibiu… while riding a bike.
The circuit starts from Sibiu‘s ASTRA Open-air Museum, it goes through Răşinari and Cisnădioara, via the Argint Valley with its Cretaceous limestone and it finally gets on the Măgura Summit where a breath-taking panoramic view awaits.
The route is easy until the exit from the Prislop hamlet, where the path gets narrower and the slope grows steeper. With a few exceptions, the route continues uphill to the Măgura Summit.
