Overview

Poiana Brasov

The best known and internationally visited ski resort in Romania, close to Count Dracula's castle. Purpose built in the communist era to bring in hard currency with more pleasant apartment blocks than in many French resorts. 13km from the medieval town of Brasov. The gentle slopes are ideal for beginners to master the basics of snowboarding or those wishing to improve on their technique but Poiana Brasov does not have a dedicated fun park and the more adventurous will have to rely on finding their own naturally formed jumps and bowls.
