Walking the Carpathians: Footpaths in Romania and Moldova with Charles Whitlock

Charles Whitlock of Walkaway Treks explored the Eastern European treasures of Romania and Moldova.

Our fully-escorted tour included return air flights, very interesting accommodation, almost all meals, and some of the most scenic walking in Europe.

This tailor-made itinerary was especially well-received by those looking for a visually spectacular late fall tour in the company of a small group of walkers.

Deep from the interior of Romania in Piatra Craiului National Park. This was our first time in Romania. There has to be a second time!
