Hiking the Carpathian Mountain Range of Romania; Mount Omu via Cabana Malaiesti

- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- We began this hike in the small town of Busteni Romania and made our way up to Cabana Malaiesti where we spent the night. This mountain cabin is in a beautiful location on the edge of forest and mountain. The next day we went to the summit of Mount Omu and then descended back down to Busteni. Being from Australia, (a very flat country) I found this hike to be challenging. It is steep in parts and there is a scramble heading towards Omu's summit from Malaiesti. As far as the scenery and the beauty goes, you cannot go wrong with this hike especially in the warmer months. Lush green forests lead to valleys of wild flowers surrounded by jagged rock faces. This was a hike I will never forget and one I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Busteni looking for an adventure.

That water comes from Earth not from snow melted
Literally breathtaking scenery my friend, what a gorgeous place! 🥾🥾
Yes! It is a very special part of the world.
You are a city guy as long as you don't know that all the mountains sprig water isn't from the snow but as any river spring is from the earth deepness and it's the cleanest water you can find in the world. All of this small springs united are forming the rivers all along the year no matter if it's the summer and no snow or winter but the snow isn't melting to drain. 😊But I'm happy for you to be finding the beauty of the world. Many young people are knowing the nature from the coloured screens.
@@ionelghiorghita688 thanks for the info! Some of the best water I’ve had. :)
So the mountain range is called Bucegi, the peak is called Omu (the man). Malaiesti is an incredible valley, though the cabin itself became quite the party place in the weekends...
In wintertime, Malaiesti trail is spectacular 🥰
Hey, really nice video, can u help me planning my upcoming trip to Romania? Did you go by foot in one day from Busteni to Cabana Malaiesti? And then in one day back from Cabana Malaiesti by OmuPeak back to Busteni? And how did u reserve the Cabana Malaiesti?
Hey thanks :) we did the whole round trip by foot starting in Busteni and ending in Busteni coming back down via Omu. We did one day from Busteni to Cabana Malaiesti and the next day back to Busteni. I can’t remember exactly how we booked but I think we made a phone call.
Thankyou so much for responding, I will definitely go there, makes a little more sense now! Best regards from Holland :)
The 2 mountain hikes you guys did are awesome. I hope I can do them one day as well. Cheers, and all the best! 👍
Can’t recommend them enough. Thankyou! :)
That's a chamois not a deer. Go high res and zoom in, the stripes on the head and ofc the lower rear legs, made for climbing. Chamois are ridiculously good at climbing almost vertical walls. Not too hard to spot in Piatra Craiului and Fagaras mountains but maybe rarer in Bucegi.
Thanks for letting me know. I’ll have to have a relook at it.
I wish one day i could hike this beautiful place i could spend a month just to relax and enjoy this scenery magical place...
I never wanted to leave!
You don't even know how lucky you are! What you saw was a deer, it was a black goat! A very rare species in Europe!
Incredible! Thanks for letting us know
@@pursuetheadventure, just fyi, the black goat/Alpine chamois, the largest chamois subspecies, is very timid (that`s why it was so amazing that you spotted one out in the open) and, unfortunately, very hunted as a trophy.
@@vald9698 thanks for the info. I wish I knew this when we spotted it!
seen about 5 of your videos mate. lovely stuff. cheers lad, and stay safe
So glad you've them. Thanks for leaving a comment!
you must not miss the cut mountains retezat
, ,,the land of blue eyes''
Thankyou for sharing the nice scenery
As a Romanian myself, who has made it to the Omu pick, i can confirm that our Carpathians Mountains truly are special.
I love when foreigners from all over the globe come and visit my country and can’t get enough of it. ❤
If only our politicians would come up with a system that benefits everyone and not just them, Romania could be a country like no other, i really believe that.
From a foreigners perceptive I think Romania is a very beautiful country. The nature is phenomenal and the locals offered nothing but kindness.
What an incredible hiking adventure! I thoroughly enjoyed watching your journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Romania. From the beautiful trails to the majestic peaks, every moment seemed like a true adventure. The views were simply awe-inspiring, and it felt like stepping into a movie scene. I appreciated how you shared the details of your itinerary, including the town of Busteni and the cabin where you stayed. The encounters with horses and the deer added an extra touch of magic to the experience. It's evident that you both have a deep appreciation for nature and the outdoors. Thank you for taking us along on this incredible hike and reminding us of the beauty that awaits us in nature. Looking forward to your next adventure!
Hello! Thanks for leaving a comment I’m so glad you enjoyed watching :)) Romania is certainly full of natural beauty.
Hey !! Nice scenery well done, what is the name of this hiking path?
@@petitpas Thanks! I am u sure of the exact name of the trail but if you go from Busteni to Malaiesti and then to Mount omu you’ll be in the right track. There are lots of trails into these mountains and they are well signed with various symbols
@@pursuetheadventure okay thanks, I'll be in Bucarest this summer so I was wondering about the possible hikes around, it's not that far from there, thanks !!
just did this hike but without the night sleep at malaiesti.
valea cerbului was nerve wrecking.

Thank you and well done! Much more difficult hike to do in just a single day.

Dont be a fool and climb those mountains with the highest concentration of brown bears in Europe without a bear spray . You should watch basic bear documentaries to get an idea of their strength and speed
