Your summer escape at 1,250m – nature, cool mountain air, flavour and relaxation in the heart of the Carpathians.
11.08.2026 - 16.08.2026
The Romanian Carpathians are among the last truly dark skies in Europe, belonging to the remaining 1% of the continent untouched by light pollution—creating extraordinary conditions for observing the Perseids meteor shower with the naked eye.
Ursa Mică sits at the heart of this sky, with a remarkable natural advantage for watching the Perseids — altitude, near-zero light pollution, and a wide open panorama above
At 1,250m altitude, at the gateway to Transylvania, the August sky has a depth and clarity rarely found anywhere in Europe — conditions in which the Perseids are visible with the naked eye, spectacular, one after another, crossing the silence of the night.
A stay at Ursa Mică follows a simple and magical rhythm. The sun rises over the Bucegi mountains and wakes you gently — from the bungalow with panoramic windows overlooking the Carpathians, or from your Glam Tent, a premium and cozy glamping tent with the warm scent of a wood-burning stove, just like at grandmother’s. Breakfast arrives with the mountain morning air and fresh farm produce, continuing with a steaming coffee on the terrace of the Panoramic Restaurant.
The day unfolds at your own pace — hiking or quiet relaxation in the complete stillness of the villages, followed by a session in the Estonian sauna or the outdoor hot tub, with the Carpathian forests stretching out before you.
At lunch, a well-deserved Romanian soup at the Panoramic Restaurant, paired with a shot of blueberry brandy or palincă — your choice.
As evening falls, the smell rising from the cauldron or the grill announces dinner: Romanian Heritage Live Cooking, traditional dishes prepared live, with ingredients from the Carpathians.
And when complete darkness settles in — the darkest sky in Europe — you sit outside with a cocktail from the Constellation Menu in hand and let the Perseids put on the show.
At midnight, you can retreat to the romantic terrace of your tent or bungalow, or stay on the meadow of the Panoramic Restaurant with your group of friends.
