How We Grade Every Route

Choose a weekend that matches your fitness, pace and the time you want to spend outdoors.

Hikers on a wide Carpathian mountain trail in morning light
Well-marked mountain paths connect valleys across the Carpathian range.
Easy

Flat valley paths and well-maintained forest roads. Suitable for anyone who can walk 6–10 km at a relaxed pace. Elevation gain under 300 m.

Moderate

Mixed terrain with steady uphill sections. Expect 10–16 km per day and up to 800 m of ascent. A reasonable base fitness helps.

Strenuous

Steep ridge trails, loose scree or longer days above 16 km. More than 800 m of ascent. Prior mountain walking is recommended.
