Mixed, 2 days, on the heritage trail of the Dobrogea steppe and plateau, about 119 km: from Basarabi to Cape Tuzla, 12 stops. Rock-cut churches. Ancient Tomis. The promontory where ancient Callatis stood, with a view of the sea.
How to do the route
Plan 2 days with overnight stays along the route. Combine mixed travel with breaks at sites open to the public. Places of worship and pilgrimage: modest clothing, silence during services, respect for the customs of the local community (Muslim, Orthodox, or Lipovan).
