The Sulina Waterfront (promenade) is approximately five (5) km long. It starts at Mile 2 and, alongside the typical houses in blue and green, the path is interrupted by new constructions (mostly hotels and accommodations) until reaching the old center of the town.

Also, right in the town, you encounter horses that belong to no one and move freely as they please. There are few cars (as they must be brought to Sulina by ship), the clocks run slower here ... and that's a good thing!

To reach Sulina, it takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes by a small boat (max. 12 people, up to 80 km/h!!) from Tulcea. This ride must be experienced at least once.

Pictures from the Danube Delta in southeastern Romania. Starting in Braila, over the bridge (located between the cities of Braila and Galati) over the Danube and then into the Danube Delta. Simply beautiful!

The Danube is the border river between Romania and Serbia, Bulgaria, and Ukraine.

Near the towns of Socol and Bazias, the Romanian section of the Danube begins, stretching all the way to Mila 0, the so-called Mile Zero, at the Danube’s mouth in the city of Sulina. There are many sights to see along the river’s course, until, after a long journey, it fans out into the Danube Delta behind the cities of Braila and Galati in southeastern Romania, and about 60 kilometers further, it flows into the Black Sea.

"Romania, Day 10 - Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve. ❤️
Getting up early was worth it. 🙂 The sunrise boat tour was WOW. 😎
Today a lazy day at the campsite, doing a bit of laundry; tomorrow we move on. A few pictures of the enchanting Danube Delta — I have many more. Hard to believe that about 25 km away, drone attacks took place last week on a Ukrainian port. 🧐 Still, we feel very safe here. 👍"

Thanks to Mrs. Daniela and Mr. Gerhard Zitzmann for the pictures and text.

Historical documents confirm that the ancestors of today’s horse population in the Danube Delta arrived there 300 to 400 years ago, brought by the Tatars. They settled there, gradually adapting to the environment, and became increasingly feral.

In the northeastern Delta (Tulcea County), between the Chilia and Sulina branches, lies the village and forest of Letea (Romanian: Pădurea Letea), covering an area of over 5,000 hectares (50,000,000 m²). This is Europe’s northernmost subtropical forest, Romania's oldest nature reserve, and home to these horses.

In early September, cross the new bridge at Braila over the Danube, continue for about 15 km to Macin and continue straight on for about 500 metres after reaching the end of the village.

Then turn left off the main road towards the Monastery of the Spring of Healing (also Macin Monastery) and as soon as you turn left again towards the monastery, park on the right and walk to the right ... into the Macin mountains.

Butterflies, lizards, a tortoise and lots and lots of nature all the way to the top of Vraju, (probably) the highest point in the mountain range, 335 metres above sea level. A great view of the monastery and the surrounding area towards the Danube Delta, Braila and Galati, including the new bridge over the Danube, rewards the afternoon climb, when it's still around 28 degrees.

Hike time up/down: 4 hours, with the last 30-45 minutes being rockier and therefore good footwear is a must. The hiking trails are well signposted and easy to follow/find.
