Sobre esta experiência

When Alex uncovered some secret files hidden in the bookshelf of his Airbnb, he never imagined they’d lead to the heart of Hoia Baciu Forest—a place wrapped in mystery and feared by many. Known for its strange vegetation, unexplained disappearances, and paranormal sightings, the forest is a crossroads of mystery and legend.

Now it’s your turn to follow his trail. Walk winding paths and unravel a story that blurs the line between myth and reality.

This is more than a quest—it’s a descent into one of Romania’s most enigmatic legends. Bring your curiosity, your courage, and your companions. Some truths can’t be uncovered alone.

Are you ready to walk into the unknown?

Destaques

  • The clues will lead you to the forest's most enigmatic spot: "Poiana Rotunda" also known as "The Circle".

  • On your path you will discover some weird vegetation, some unexpected explanations, you will dive into the local folklore and maybe you will catch a glimpse of a ghost.

  • Pay attention to your footwear, if it rained recently you need mud boots.

A missão: A tua história em Cluj-Napoca

In the heart of Transylvania, nestled on the outskirts of Cluj-Napoca, lies the enigmatic Hoia Baciu forest - a place shrouded in mystery and steeped in legend. 

Alex had come to Romania looking for a quiet vacation. But everything shifted the moment he found a set of files hidden in the bookshelf of his Airbnb apartment. The mysterious contents pulled him in. With each page, the quiet getaway began to feel like the start of something uncertain—something he had to understand.
