About the Transylvanian trail

The 1,400-kilometre Transylvanian trail, known as Via Transilvanica, opened in 2022 and stretches across Transylvania from northeast to southwest. Traversing seven historical-geographical regions, including Bukovina, Szeklerland, and what used to be part of the Kingdom of Hungary, the trail showcases cultural monuments from every era.

The route can be explored on foot, horseback, or by bicycle, and features granite milestones carved by both amateur and renowned stone carvers. Each milestone reflects local motifs, with notable designs like tulips in Szeklerland. The trail’s construction was a collaborative effort involving over ten thousand volunteers from four hundred settlements across ten counties.
