The Vaser Valley Mocănița, a steam adventure

The Vaser Valley Mocănița is one of the best-known experiences in the north of the country: steam locomotives, narrow valleys and dense forest. From Câmpu Cetății, set off early and turn the day into a story on rails.

What you experience on board

The route climbs the Vaser valley with stops in nature and rare views. Mountain air, the engine’s sound and the slow pace pull you completely out of daily routine.

Practical tips

Book ahead in season, bring layers and a picnic. The drive to the departure point needs planning, but it is worth it for families and groups.
