Glamping pe Drum Transfagarasan is an exquisite glamping founded in March 2022. It is located on the famous mountain road Transfagrasan, in Romania, Curtea de Arges, an old Wallachian town, one of the medieval capitals of Wallachia that was once ruled by Negru Voda, the legendary founder voivod/prince of Wallachia. Two historic Wallachian monasteries/churches located in the region are named after his name : Fortress Church Negru Voda and Negru Voda Monastery, Campulung. Check this folk-rock tune by Pheonix called 'Balada Negru Voda', about Negru Voda/Dark Voivod and his army



The glamping gives access to a large orchard with amazing landscape and scenic views. It accepts IngSoftPos payments and discounts on the spot if the booking is made in advance with the manager or through an official booking website (e.g. Iturist or any other booking website for at least one night reservation). Tasty food and burgers from local restaurants, beverages and other products from Profi and Kaufland can be delivered to the glamping address by using Glovo Food Delivery app :) Thr Black Angus beef burger and strong dark Silva lager, the exquisite Transylvanian Heineken beer in the jar are recommended by GDT. Check it out and enjoy ;) 

The glamping is located on the beautiful Subcarpathian hills, an area close to awesome unexplored rock monasteries such as Corbi monastery (31 km), Negru Voda fortress monastery (51 km), Pahomie monastery (63.8 km), and magnificient Olt Valley (47 km), soul lifting Cozia National Park (Stanisoara monastery 52 km ; Turnu monastery 49 km), and Cozia mountain peaks (Ciuha Mare 1668, Ciuha Mica 1629) accessible by foot from Cozia cottage (15-20 min). There is also the Poenari Fortress (29.4 km) or Vlad the Impaler's fortress, placed on Transfagarasan, the most spectacular mountain road in Europe, which crosses the Fagaras mountains over impressive viaducts, with picturesque mountain and lake landscape (Vidraru Lake and hydroelectric dam 830m), reaching the top at Balea glacial lake and cottage, elevation 2034 m, connecting two beautiful historic regions of Eastern Europe, Wallachia and Transylvania and two medieval towns : Curtea de Arges and Sibiu/Hermannstadt.
