Skiing in Prahova Valley, a popular Romanian destination for winter fun

Romania might not be the first choice of winter sports fans but the country still attracts many tourists in its ski resorts. And the winter resorts in Prahova Valley are among the most popular.

Prahova Valley (Valea Prahovei) is home to some of the most popular and crowded ski resorts in Romania, mainly due the fact that is located close to the capital city Bucharest. The ski slopes here are also among the best in the country but things are not all pink. Getting there from Bucharest is usually a nightmare for drivers in weekends or vacations and the ski resorts are sometimes way too crowded to actually enjoy the ski trip. But, despite all that, Prahova Valley remains one of the Romanians’ favorite choices for winter fun.
