Discover the beauty of Romania, having fun, unforgettable moments in nature – taking part in Mountain Ecology Educational Camps, offered by the Professional Team. In these camps, participants will get close to nature, and to Romania’s customs and traditions. We are offering much more than ecological education, we also teach participants the skills of mountain trekking, climbing, horse riding, caving, mountain orientation, etc. Our camps take place in the Piatra Craiului National Park and a part of the activities are organised and carried out in collaboration with the Park administration. Participating in these camps helps towards biodiversity conservation in the Piatra Craiului National Park, because a proportion of the camp price is offered to the National Park for conservation work.
