Enchanted forest - Romania

An enchanted forest is covering Baraolt Romanian Mountains situated in Covasna County.

At the end of October, in the middle of autumn, we took an itinerary in the mountains of Covasna county, starting from the resort Sugas Bai (from the base of the ski slope) to the peaks of Gurgau (1017 m) and Havad (1019 m) mountains, with a short stop in Benko glade, continuing to the village of Haghig.

The photos will reveal you a fairy tale landscape, blurred and fierce, discovered through the rain and the excessive humidity.


In our trip, we were accompanied by the shadows of a thick fog, which sometimes looks like an unleashing ghosts among the trees; the game of dancing mist revealed the deep darkness of the enchanting forest, freezing our hearts.

As we climb the slope to the two peaks, the beech and birch forest let more place to the fir trees. Through the steam that arise from the ground covered by the multicolored autumn leaves, the forest doesn't allowed us to see into the depth. A strange darkness blocked the light, through the camera lens, and we hardly tried to penetrate the opaque fog wall to take pictures.

The narrow path, covered with leaves on large sections, is opening to the plateau. Along the path to Benko we stumbled over many water holes and we encountered many multicolored mushrooms.

The dense and enchanting forest leave place to a large view that delights our eyes with its spectacular and splendid colors of autumn.


Descending from the plateau, the magic of the fir forest is replaced by the magic of the deciduous forest, until the end of the route: the village of Hagig. The whole itinerary delights the eye of the viewers and incites the professionalism of photographers.
