Oltenia biking

Oltenia-biking

Oltenia de sub Munte has a network of roads that offer the possibility to visit by bike the sights and villages at the foot of the Căpățânii Mountains. The main road, which is also the southern boundary of the area, is the national road 67 Rm. Vâlcea - Târgu Jiu.

Another road, further north and parallel to the national road, less frequented and known but very picturesque is the authentic road of Oltenia de sub Munte, which crosses the region from west to east, starting from Olănești, passing through Păușești Măglași, Dobriceni, Bărbătești, Pietreni, Bistrița, Horezu, Vaideeni and then continuing in Gorj towards Polovragi and Novaci. These main East-West axes are intersected and linked by a series of roads along the valleys, in a North-South direction, thus offering the possibility to cover circuits ranging from a few kilometres to over 100, with different starting points.

On these roads, most of which are asphalted, we suggest a number of cycle routes. Please see below a map of the routes:
