Rich nature & wildlife

Romania has a variety of ecosystems and rich wildlife because the Carpathian Mountains cover 50% of its land area. In all of Europe, Romania boasts one of the highest biodiversity rates. This indicates that compared to the rest of the continent, this region has a greater variety of landscapes, habitats, and plant and animal species. If you love nature, this is most likely the finest justification for traveling to Romania. Over 33,000 animal species and 3,700 plant species are supported by the diversity of environments. Many of them, including the largest population of large carnivores in Europe and 40% of all mammal species on the continent, call the immense woods of the Carpathians home.

Romania also has a very incredible wildlife. Romania is also home to 50% of the brown bears in Europe (around 6000 individuals), as well as to the largest populations of wolves, lynxes, and chamois in Europe. At one of the various reservations spread out around the nation, such as the Libearty Bear Sanctuary in Zarnesti, Brasov, the European Bison Reservation in Neamt, or the Danube Delta, you may get up close and personal with the animals.
