Land Itinerary: Timisoara – Danube’s Gorge – Decebal’s Rock - Timisoara (480 km; 9h 30 min driving)


Highlights:
 See the second largest river in Europe: the Danube
 Enjoy one of the most spectacular parts of Romania
 Admire the rock sculpture of Decebalus 
 Relax and take some unique pictures


Program:
Our route starts from Timisoara, in a southerly direction, towards the Danube river, which is  Europe's second-longest river, after the  Volga River, and also the longest river in the  European Union region.
It is a long driving road but it surely worth to be crossed. During this trip, we will enjoy one of the most spectacular parts of Romania. Our departure will be early in the morning.
We will drive through the spectacular Danube’s Gorge where we will see the Decebal’s Rock. The rock sculpture of Decebalus is a 42.9 m in height and 31.6 m in width carving in the rock of the face of  Decebalus, the last king of  Dacia, who fought against the Roman emperors  Domitian and  Trajan to preserve the independence of his country, which corresponded to modern  Romania. Here we will discover also unique landscapes created by nature.
Then we will admire the beauty of mountains, the protected area situated in the administrative territory of Bozovici. B
Late in the evening, we will return in Timisoara.


Please note:
 Boat cruise on the Danube: we’ll visit Decebal’s Statue and 2 caves. The cruise is made by a small boat (8-10 pers) and takes about 40 minutes.
 Don’t forget your walking shoes, comfortable clothes and your camera.
