Mythical Maramures

8 days - Private Guided Departures for 2 or more persons travelling together

  • Travel back in time to the "Europe that was"
  • Ancient wooden churches and the "Merry Cemetery"
  • The land where "Earth meets Heaven"

An adventure back in time, a genuine travel experience that will enchant even the most seasoned world traveller. Isolated, high on the border between Romania and the Ukraine, rural mediaeval life in Maramures remains remarkably intact. Discover tiny villages set amongst a dreamy, bucolic landscape of rolling hills and remote brooding mountains, steeped in history and where local customs still hold strong.

Maramures truly is a world treasure and the only place in Europe where a peasant culture still thrives. Gems of the Maramures include ancient hand built wooden churches, traditional music, colourful local costumes and time honoured traditional rituals and festivals. Journeying on foot is definitely the way to absorb this most truly special of special places in all of Europe where people and the landscape are as one.
