Bucharest Secret Retreat: Bike Tour to Snagov Forest & Lake

20 km away from busy Bucharest life lies Snagov Lake, surrounded by a thick forest. Besides spotting various birds, rabbits or even deers, biking in the clean green air will give you a sense of freedom! And when we emerge from the forest on the splendid lake shores, you will want to sit back and admire the view. Then we continue our healthy bike route to a secluded 15th century landmark.

we were looking to get out of Bucharest and be in nature on our last day so we contacted Romanian Friend on Friday, they quickly replied and on Saturday we went on this tour with Oana. the trip was great, Snagov forest is wonderful and we had a great time. the trails were not difficult at all and the bikes were proper and well maintained. thank you!
