Libearty Bear Sanctuary Zarnesti
The sanctuary was opened in 2005, nowadays over 70 bears enjoying a new life in the Libearty Bear Sanctuary – 70 hectares of oak and hazel forest in the Carpathian Mountains above the Transylvanian town of Zarnesti. Here, the bears climb trees, swim in fresh water pools and forage on the vegetation. These forested areas contain hibernation dens and hundreds of trees with lush natural vegetation. For many of the bears, having been caught from the wild as cubs, this is a new and stimulating experience.

Rasnov’s impressive fortress - was built in the 14th century to protect the people of Rasnov and surrounding villages from the numerous Ottoman invasions happening at the time. During periods of war, the townsfolk would pick up their cattle and retreat into the fortress.
