…we believe that through art, games and adventure we can interpret Hațeg Region in the best possible way,

…we believe that there is no age limit for creative learning and for finding out new things about the Earth and the people,

…we believe that the chance of the local community is intelligent tourism and the connexion to the natural environment,

…we believe that the inhabitants of Hațeg Region, children and grown-ups, must actively participate to the development of the region through voluntary work and entrepreneurship,

…we believe that the visitors can enjoy a unique and complete experience with the help of our trails, guided tours, workshops and educational programs.
