I’m Marius, certified mountain guide, and I set up this website to share with you some of the most beautiful places the Carpathians have to offer. I love the mountains and the vibes and energy they charge you with! Practically, I grew up hiking. My first trail was the one winding up to my parents’ chalet, in a mountain hamlet somewhere in the Great Mountain (Muntele Mare) massif of Northern Transylvania. Spending my time outdoors and exploring nature has become part of my day-to-day life.

Stories to be told must be lived. Live a winter story in the Carpathian Mountains, in several ski tour areas, where you can enjoy the wildness of the mountains, their magnificence and the unique landscapes that winter offers. It will be a tour with a mix of feelings and experiences, where you can safely ski with our mountain guides with over 15 years experience skiing on the highest peaks, long and wide slopes, narrow color, ridges, but new we also hope for snow powder, fresh although this depends only on the weather conditions. The tour is aimed at skiers of minimum medium level, who have good knowledge of skiing in varied snow.

You will have a free run, in which your current level will be observed, after that we will begin to correct and introduce new elements to your technique. Carving is where the edges cut into the snow so well that the skis do not slide sideways, and travel straight along their length. Ski racers try to carve all the time, as it is the quickest way down the mountain, and conserves as much of their speed as possible. We will practice the three essential principles that define a ski turn : Initiation, Shaping and Finishing. This helps you on the groomed piste in ice conditions but also to start your adventure outside the piste, because you will be able to asses, feel and control not only your posture but also your center of gravity.

Explore the mountains from a different perspective. Walk easily in deep snow. Spend a great day out in the nature.
