Introduction:
Hiking activites take place in the countryside surrounding Miklósvár, which
offers the walker a diverse variety of landscapes, including open hillsides with
wild flower meadows, rolling woodland pastures, deciduous and coniferous
forests, dramatic gorges and mountains. We cater for the experienced hiker, as
well as those wishing for gentle walks. Those with an interest in history,
nature and earth sciences will find these hikes of interest. Hiking activities
take place throughout the year, including the winter period. If snow cover is
deep enough in some areas, cross country skiing is possible (we provide the
necessary equipment, skis, boots and poles).
WHAT WE PROVIDE:
At the Kálnoky Guesthouses you will be provided with a hearty breakfast early in
the morning and a dinner on your return in the evening. A dayâ™s hiking activity
includes an information pack (information, maps), transportation to the drop-off
point, a picnic lunch (with vegetarian options), and collection at a designated
pick-up point. You will also be provided with a mobile phone to be used during
emergencies. If you would like to be accompanied by a hiking/nature guide, this
can also be arranged for selected hikes.
WHAT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO BRING WITH YOU:
Walking boots, a waterproof jacket (and trousers) and a rucksack are essential.
Hikers might want to bring along their own compass (Transylvanian maps are
provided in the hikerâ™s information pack), as well as a torch. Depending on the
season, you should also consider packing some warm clothing. Information on the
temperatures expected will be provided prior to your visit. Those with an
interest in wildlife should bring along their binoculars, as well as nature
guides to help with the identification of birds, plants, mushrooms, and animal
tracks. Insect repellent is also useful.
Endless
stunning countryside â¦a hikerâ™s paradise!!!
