The green heart of Maramureș still beats ancestral rhythms. One may find it hidden in the Gutâi Mountains that embrace the gentle hills between Mara and Cosău rivers. A spectacular and peaceful space, where people spend their lives in a simple manner as seasons, faith and traditions teach them.
During the centuries, Moroşenii (the people of Maramureș) have raised here a civilization of wood. Reflected everywhere, it can be seen by guests (travelers) in the slender spiers of the churches, linking heaven and earth; in the traditional folk techniques; in the massive gates, carved with pagan symbols designed to protect the family; in outbuildings and household items.
The man of Maramureș lives today as he has always lived: he is well-to-do and proud of his history, jovial and happy to have guests, always ready to show you around, make you a part of the household habits or take you to village holidays.
The Mara, Creasta Cocoșului (Rooster’s Crest) and Cosău triangle is the perfect place for active tourism: you can choose between biking, climbing, paragliding and skiing – or you can wander on the mountains, taking perfect pictures.
We are looking forward to meeting you here! This year and the years to come!
