Bears, Bears, Bears, and More - We really enjoyed our bear viewing experience! It was rainy going to the park, but it cleared up nicely once we got situated in our "hide" The viewing area was protected from the elements (like a glass fronted cabin really) and bears would come to feed in viewing distance. I particularly liked the interaction of bears and the cunning little foxes. It was definitely the highlight of my trip to Romania.

See bears in the wild - A pear feast for the bears. A little fox came by hoping to find meat. Great Inn pickup and drop off at the Inn. Impeccable. I recommend. A little expensive 90 euros...but it's not every day that you can see bears in the wild.

Amazing experience - It was an amazing experience, the bears were very close to us and we could see them well. The Guide Traian Bichea explained and tell us all about the brown bear community in Romania. Although the cabin from where you see the bears has no ventilation or AC so if you go during summer it is very hot 🥵

10-15 Meter distance, many bears (saw nine) - It was really great. We saw nine bears in total, and eight at once together. The guide, Claudiu, provided plenty of information on Romanian bears. Recommend.

Watching Bears in the Wild - Timely pick up from our hotel with another couple and taken to the village next to Rasnov where we transferred to a Land Rover to negotiate the forest trail to the watching point. Great views of about 10 adult bears with a total of about 15 people present in the hide. We watched, took photos and videos for over an hour. Returned back to Brasov main square at our request so we could go to a restaurant for dinner. The couriers were friendly and informative. A great experience all round.

A bit artificial! - It's extraordinary to be able to observe ten bears for more than an hour, well sheltered in an observatory. You should even know that they are baited by food distributed every day in the same place at the same time. 100% chance of seeing bears but it's a bit artificial you have to know.
