High score (8-10)
Porumbacu de Jos is a commune at the foot of the Fagaras mountains where trails into one of Romania's most serious alpine ranges begin. Serious hikers — Romanian and increasingly foreign — pass through here in summer, giving the village more international contact than its size suggests. A foreign man here in mountain context has immediate common ground with other outdoor enthusiasts. Outside hiking season it is a quiet agricultural commune.
