The ride up to Crint, near Sibiu, is a classic, we’ve been doing it for four or five years now – ever since my parents bought a small patch of land in the area, and we slowly started making a summer holiday place out of it. So, whenever there’s a free weekend, we go to the village of Fantanele for some peace and quiet, to admire the beauty of the place and its manifold mountain biking options.
From Fantanele you can reach Paltinis through Gura Raului on the now famous Daneasa valley (who got its reputation thanks to the Geiger mountain biking marathon). But you can also reach Paltinis through Rasinari. Another cycling destination is Magura Cisnadiei and even Cindrel Peak, where we once ventured in an exploring trip, which you can read about, but mostly look at the pictures here.
