Romania Ice Hotel Family Holiday

Arrive Bucharest and meet the group.

Overnight Standard Hotel

Departing Bucharest in the morning we we head to the Ice hotel, it lies about an hour and a half’s drive from the town, situated near Balea Lac, some 2,034 meters up in the Fagaras Range of the Carpathian Mountains. Once we arrive at the foot of the mountain, the hotel is accessed by way of a further hour’s journey by cable car. Built with ice carved from Balea Lac, the hotel has an ice restaurant, an ice bar and even an ice church, which is created each year from ice blessed by local priests! The plan for this afternoon is to enjoy snow-shoeing and tobogganing near the hotel.

Overnight Simple Hotel Included meals: Breakfast, Dinner

Leaving our ice hotel behind this morning we head to Răşinari in Sibiu County, sandwiched between the Carpathian Mountains to the south and the Transylvanian Plateau to the north. On arrival we have a chance to enjoy some tobogganing and snow-shoeing around the local area. Both activities are fairly easily mastered and you should need just a few minutes instruction to feel confident enough to head off on our afternoon’s excursion.

There will be a last chance for some more activities in the snow, before we leave later this morning and head back to Bucharest. It is a three to four hour journey by road back to the capital where, on arrival, we have the chance to try some ice skating (optional).
