Exploring Bran: A Picturesque Destination

In the heart of Transylvania, nuzzled in the foothills of the Bucegi mountains, is Bran. Less than an hour by bus from Brasov, this picturesque village is one of the most popular destinations in Romania. However, it's not the hillside houses or the gorgeous green valley that draw in the crowds. That can be found across this beautiful country. It's the spectacular Bran Castle that has visitors arriving by the busload. But before you plan a mere day trip to Bran, you'll want to consider everything else this town has to offer. The following are some of the activities to enjoy during your vacation stay.

Activities at Bran Castle

Bran Castle Tour. Jutting ominously from a hilltop overlooking the town, Bran Castle is one of the best castles in Romania. Its appearance is straight out of a fantasy novel. And while commonly referred to as Dracula's Castle, there is no connection to either Vlad the Impaler or Bram Stoker, Dracula's author. Halloween at Bran Castle. If you are visiting in autumn, you'll want to consider checking out the castle for its annual Halloween. The party itself is in a covered tent on the grounds beneath the castle and resembles a fairly simple tent party. However, a night tour of the castle is included with admission, and celebrating Halloween under the shadow of Dracula's Castle is a memorable activity. Jazz Festival in the Castle. Held annually, over the past 7 years in August, the three-day Jazz fest takes place in the Bran Castle courtyard. The open-air concert brings music lovers from all over the world, together in an almost mystical setting.

Outdoor Adventures in Bran

Hiking in Bran Romania. Hiking in the Bucegi mountains is a popular activity for locals and adventure travelers alike. Eight main trails in the Bran region lead to some spectacular scenery. Day hikes around Bran can be easily accomplished. However, many people gear up for multi-day treks through the mountains. If you are planning to venture into the hills, understand that this is bear territory. You'll want to remember to bring your bear chimes or spray and always ask the locals about safety concerns in the area before heading out. Bran Village Museum. This small, though informative, outdoor museum offers a sample of Romanian village life back in the day. If you're familiar with the ASTRA Museum in Sibiu this is the half-hour, quick tour version.
