The Tășuleasa Social Association, which initiated the project, recently announced that Via Transilvanica is expanding. The goal is to connect all of Romania's historical regions, over the next 20 years, to the existing 1,400-kilometer network.
A first concrete step in this direction was the inauguration, on June 5, of a new trail segment. Called “Terra Borza Teutonica”, it is 170 kilometers long and crosses Brașov County. The inauguration symbolically coincided with World Environment Day.
Via Transilvanica, in its current 1,400-kilometer form, was built over seven years through a collective effort involving individual donors, companies, artists, local entrepreneurs, and volunteers, known as the “People of the Road.”
The trail has attracted hikers from several continents and has gained recognition internationally.

The expansion project aims to create an extended network of routes that makes it easier to explore the natural and cultural heritage of the country's various historical areas.
According to the president of the Tășuleasa Social Association, Alin Ușeriu, this new stage continues the efforts to develop and promote Romania through hiking tourism.
The Tășuleasa Social Association invites anyone interested to join the “People of the Road” community and to support the plan to expand Via Transilvanica.
