A very popular thing to do in Brasov is to go on a hike to the Tampa Mountain Peak. If you are visiting Brasov for the first time, definitely go up here.

You can take the cable car and then a short hike will take you to this place where you get a beautiful viewing point to Brasov and the surrounding. You can also take the slightly longer hike directly from Brasov. Both options are well worth it.

On the top you are at 960 m above the sea level, but the view to Brasov is very nice. Even though rare, you might see bears on the hike to here.

Mount Tâmpa

Highlight • Viewpoint

The limestone mountain Tâmpa, known to the Transylvanian Saxons as Zinne or Kapellenberg, is part of the Postăvaru massif in the southern Eastern Carpathians. The peak, located at 960 meters above sea level, rises almost 400 meters above the city. The mountain area is largely a nature reserve. The Tâmpa cable car is currently being renovated (2025); it normally runs Tuesday to Friday between 9:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. The Hollywood-style white lettering "BRASOV" clearly indicates where you are from.
