A Gentle Journey Into the Past
In the heart of Covasna County, time seems to move at a slower pace. Here, where forests whisper stories of the past and meadows open into endless horizons, you can discover the timeless charm of travel as it once was — by horse-drawn carriage or sleigh.Please note that the sleigh ride experience depends greatly on the level of snow, and in case of insufficient snowfall, the ride will take place by traditional horse-drawn carriage instead.”
This tour is designed as a romantic, eco-friendly escape that invites you to reconnect with tradition, nature, and the quiet rhythm of the countryside. At the same time, the experience allows you to rediscover the noble heritage of the region, once home to aristocratic families who traveled these very paths by carriage. With every step of the horses, echoes of that elegance and tradition return, blending with the beauty of the natural landscape.
What to expect
Embark on a journey that feels like stepping straight into a living postcard of rural Transylvania. With the steady rhythm of hooves echoing through valleys and forests, time seems to slow down, allowing you to truly savor the beauty around you.
In the winter months, the sleigh glides effortlessly across snow-covered meadows, the air crisp and pure, the landscape sparkling like a fairy tale. In other seasons, the carriage rolls past blossoming fields, rustic haystacks, and shaded forest paths, offering a serene glimpse of traditional village life that has remained unchanged for centuries.
Guided by your experienced groom, Ionuț, who knows every bend of the road and every story of the land, this ride is not just about movement — it’s about immersion.
Along the way, a picnic basket filled with local delicacies invites you to pause in a quiet clearing or a panoramic meadow, where you can taste the richness of the region while surrounded by nature’s silence. This is more than a simple ride. It is a mindful, sensory experience where the sounds of birdsong and the rustling of trees replace the rush of modern life, and where each moment offers a chance to reconnect with nature, tradition, and yourself.
This is more than a tour — it is an invitation to pause, breathe, and embrace the beauty of simplicity. Whether you choose the fresh light of the morning or the soft glow of an afternoon ride, you will carry with you the timeless memory of a gentle journey into the past, where nature, tradition, and the noble charm of Transylvania meet in perfect harmony.
