Magura Peak is a wonderful mountain bike trail route in my home – Transylvania, near to the historic city of Sibiu. It takes you through magical forests and high into the mountains, with the wild and beautiful Romanian countryside surrounding you. I love exploring and riding in the hills here, and this route is a special one to share with you 🙂
Stats 25.44 km 904 metres
Refreshments & Where to Stay
Nearby historic Sibiu should always be the first choice for your base when riding here, as it has everything that you will need, including lots of accommodation options in this medieval city. Refreshments on the ride are obviously limited, so take plenty with you.
Character
A hard first half of the ride will take you up to the summit, with magical views along the way as you explore the countryside and mountain meadows of Transylvania. The second half of the ride is all about riding downhill and having lots of exciting fun.
Route
Simply follow the GPS route and map and you’ll soon find adventure.
