bison+bear encounter BISON TRACKING BEAR WATCHING WILDLIFE SIGHTINGS TRADITIONAL FOOD TENTED CAMP EXPERIENCE SOUTHERN CARPATHIANS CHOICE FOR 1-3 DAYS ROMANIA Iconic wildlife is coming back to the heart of the Carpathian Mountains. Bison have disappeared from the wild in Romania 200 years ago, but WWF, Rewilding Europe and the Bison Hillock Association are working together to bring them back in the Țarcu Mountains. The European bison is an umbrella species, a missing link in the trophic chain, with a real impact on maintaining ecological processes that are specific to wilderness areas. Visit the Bison Hillock to find out more about these animals that used to roam freely in forests across Europe and are now rarer than the black rhinos. We offer you a one day trip guided by specialised rewilding rangers & guides and the opportunity to witness first hand how the bison are “learning” to be free again. You will understand their behaviour, group interactions and favourite foods and see the impact that these animals are having on the landscape.
