The guy on the mountain was yelling twords a shepherd that 4 sheep and 2 lambs have parted from the heard and went almost all the way up to the same place you guys were going :)
The dogs you met on the mountain trail but also at the "Curmatura" (Saddleback) hut, are Carpathian Shepherds. It is a pure Romanian breed, like the Shepherd of Bucovina, another pure Romanian breed. They have been sheep guard dogs for centuries.
Wise decision to get out of town. My advice was and will always be the same for anybody visiting Romania if you truly want to see its beauty : stay out of the cities, go to the countryside. Visit monasteries, castles, mountain ranges, pass through little villages, just go to places where nature is the main thing and there are less people and less noise. The cities are great, but they're not what mostly makes Romania beautiful, it's the sense of purity and nature here, and that old, rustic vibe of simplicity and tranquility. The mountains are especially our pride and joy. Now, I'm a city boy, grew up in Brasov (which is also why I might be biased about the mountains) and lived only in cities, 3 of them, in 3 different regions of Romania, but I still think the countryside is something truly special here.
Take great care of yourself. In the forests of Romania are the most bears in all of Europa !!.Travel on the mountain only with guides .Enjoy your trip in Romania and and i recommend you visit salt mine Salina Turda-Cluj , one of the most beautiful salt mine in the world !
This dogs at minute 11:50 are special train to follow people how go ther and to protect them from bears and wolves. But this one i think have like the smell of your sandwich)))
you guys are the most sweetest and cutest couple and also individuals ive even seen on youtube! immediate subscriber because of your personalities and the location is just a bonus! Im going to Romania in 2 weeks to hike!
Absolutely beautiful video ! I commend you both on such a long hike ! But oh so worth it !! The shots of the countryside were stunning. Also, that soup & bread looked delish. It looked similar to a Basque soup I’ve had. #sodamngood
Glad you guys enjoyed the hike to "Curmatura" Cabin and there's so much more amazing things to explore in Piatra Craiului Montains (they translate something like "The Prince's Stone" Mountains) and also other Carpathian locations in Romania. Anyway, cool video, nice perspective of this hike , maybe you'll do some other hikes in the future. And to answer your question about that stick on the dogs leashes, among other reasons, one of them is that the dogs have that wooden stick on their leash is in case you're buried, or trapped, in snow following an avalanche, the dogs can safe you, if they find you in time, you can hold on to that stick and one or two dogs can pull you out of the snow. Cheers guys!
Doi Viezuri Unfortunately this is our last video in Romania for this visit 😞. BUT that’s not to say we won’t come back!! We would love to explore more of Romania, and I am sure we will some day in our future! Those dogs sound like real super heroes! They’re humble, wear a cool superhero utility belt and save lives haha. Thank you for the kind words and info! :)
@@MoreTravelPlease The answer about wooden stick on dogs leash is totally wrong. They are shepherd dogs, they protect the flock of sheep and sheepfold. Winter, sheepfold are not on the mountain, where are avalanches, it is in the plain and the dogs are there as well. The stick is called "jujeu" and allows the dog to walk fast but does not allow to run and catch the hunt (the stick will hurt their feet if they run). This means that they do not leave the flock of sheep to go hunting and leave her unprotected and the wildlife is protected. In the modern days is against the law if the utilitarian shepherd dogs not wear "jujeu" (because Romania protects the wildlife). If you see dogs whit "jujeu" don't feed them! They have a special food and the shepherd is upset if he sees you. If you see the dogs, there is a flock of sheep around. You may have noticed that these dogs did not bark. But they bark if it's a danger. If you approach a sheepfold/flock of sheep and the dogs welcomes you with barks DO NOT go forward, go back calmly, and make a wide detour or wait for the shepherd to come to you or to whistle at dogs. The same dog that you handled and gave him food, will tear you to pieces if he sees you touch or harm a sheep or their master. They are very smart and fearless (they fight with the bear to the death - and Romania has the most bears 40% in Europe ). P.S. I think LUPIN was a shepherd dog who lost his collar whit "jujeu" (if it smells like a sheep and not a dog it is for sure).
@@danpisro Wow, that's really interesting, thank you!! And aww omg maybe he was one!! :O I don't know if he smelt like a sheep, but he was definitely smelly hahah
@Doi Viezuri Daca nu stii despre ce este vorba, mai bine te informezi sau taci. Cainii ciobanesti carpatini nu sunt dotati cu "manere" . Daca s-ar intampla ce spui tu, ar sapa in zapada sa te ajute sa respiri si apoi ar latra sa semnalizeze ca are nevoie de ajutor si s-ar duce sa-si aduca stapanul (nu ar astepta sa te agati de "manerul" lui ).

Guys that dog was sent by the sheperd to escort you out. Those are sheep guard dogs, extremely well trained. Sheperds don't really like tourists around them.
Interacting with these dogs was not wise. They are working dogs, they are not pet. The stick hanging by their collars is to inform the ranger that is a sheepdog and to stophim.... The Carpathian Sheepdogs provides protection for people encountered on the mountain trail. The Romanian Carpathian Shepherd Dog is a dog used for centuries by Romanian shepherds in the Carpathians to guard herds, being an excellent guard dog.
I heard on a TV series that Romanian's no speak only Italian . Is that true , & if so , was there a invasion , & 2005 little before I heard Belgium removed Christian's or something . Is that true ?.
@@RaduRadonys There was a show called Destination Truth series and one Episode they were at Romania getting tickets had Jial whatever way name spelled had to speak Italian to the cashier ticket person . They are the ones said they mostly or all speak Italian there . That is why I've asked .
@@karlaug4450 Romanian is pretty similar to Italian, so maybe that's why. But we speak Romanian here, not Italian. And about the invasion, Belgium, Christianity, this is all made up, I have never heard of such things.
Shepard dogs in the mountains should not be feed, I was with my grandfather & his friends... they told me that feeding the dogs is the responsibility of the owner/shepard, as the dogs will be more disciplined & listen better like that. Feeding them can ruin the bond/connection they have with the shepard, so you must not feed the dogs. Edit: My grandfather told me that wolves used to be so big that they would run away with a calf in its mouth, so dogs need to be disciplined to protect or warn from wild dangerous animals.

Bravo! Felicitări! (un vampir din Brașov) Transilvania, România!
55% of the bears to Europe living in Romania.
That's crazy!! I had good reason to be scared!
Great scenery of the mountains. You had a real adventure in the Carpathians.
We really did! We are so lucky
Beautiful landscapes
Love Romania!
Romania is magical and wild !!!
Absolutely!!

When you said Hi to the dog, I thought that it was going to come to you. Because “hi” sounds like “hai” which means come here! 🙂
Aww! So cute. He was so shy!
Hi you two, good to have found you. I've been really enjoying your video's and know I'll be back for more. All the very best to you.
Thank you so much! This is a really sweet comment :) We're really happy to see people enjoying out videos!! Hope to talk to you more! 💖
Nice videos.
just wondering why you have to keep ur fone near your lips? are you using it as a mic?

I am glad you enjoy Romania .
Can give me more details about what kind of drone and camera do you use?
Thank you !
Our camera is a sony a7 iii and the drone is a mavic pro!
Really nice vlog 👌👌👌
Thank you!! :)
👍👍👍
I see Piatra Craiului from my window :)
Wow!! How beautiful :)
👌✔👍
Sad you did not go to Danube delta.
i would have pet those dogs a lot, i love dogs, anyways i love hiking too and i wish i could go there.
Maybe you will one day! I know, they were sooo fluffy and cute too, we also love dogs so much
Do not pet them, they are shepherd dogs, not pets.
I'm ashamed to be a romanian and never hiked Piatra Craiului.
Specially since I hiked Mount Washington (your back yard)
Stefan Diaconu I have just as much shame, since I haven’t climbed Mount Washington 😂 Harrison is the only unshameful one who has climbed both
