Villa Abbatis considers Transylvania home and as any hospitable host with new guests, it wants to offer the most welcoming stay. The combination of nature, history, customs, legends and the people has made this destination the perfect mixture for a unique experience. However, why stop there? Villa Abbatis insists that there is one element that can bring you even closer to an authentic and original way to feel a connection with the medieval ancestors that once roamed these lands. It is by enjoying the most scenic trails thatTransylvania has to offer by horse. It is such that even His Majesty KingCharles agrees with this vision, being a strong supporter of the experience offered here at Villa Abbatis. The story of the Villa is one that gives back to the community but what is most magnificent about it is, is its commitment to the environment, having its trails certified by the Romanian Eco-TourismAssociation (REA).
The location has met the highest standards because of its commitment and dedication to nature conservation and sustainable tourism development. All tours here are Eco-certified by REA since 2016 and in 2017 the hosts of the villa became members of REA themselves. So pick a trail, saddle up, and enjoy the ride of a lifetime!
