Programe pentru toată ziua în Băile Tușnad și împrejurimi: Băile Tușnad – satul Tușnadul Nou - plimbare cu trăsura trasă de cai pe Munții Harghita   După micul dejun, în această zi încercăm să explorăm și să cunoaștem împrejurimile cazării noastre. Pentru prima dată vom face cunoștință cu stațiunea balneoclimaterică Băile Tușnad, cel mai mic oraș din țară. Ne plimbăm prin oraș, descoperim clădirile principale, băile, gustăm din apele minerale. În timp ce adulții sunt invitați la o delicioasă cafea á lá Tușnad, copiii pot încerca parcurile de joacă și locurile de joacă din centrul orașului. Apoi ne îndreptăm spre satul vecin, Tușnadu Nou, unde suntem primiți la o poartă tradițională secuiască. După ce cunoaștem ospitalitatea secuiască, copiii pot mângâia animale de companie precum: câine, pisică, vițel, vacă, porc, miel, găină etc. După aceea, ne urcăm pe trăsuri trase de cai și ne îndreptăm spre Munții Harghita printr-un traseu pitoresc. După ce ajungem la destinație, pe malul unui pârâu, în mijlocul naturii gustăm bunătățile gastronomice locale: slănină de casă, mici și ceafă la grătar, pe urmă gustăm pălincă și Berea Csíki. După masă putem să ne relaxăm, putem să admirăm pădurile de pin din Munții Harghita, cântăm, ne simțim bine, iar copiii dacă vor, pot cunoaște caii chiar mai îndeaproape. Pe urmă revenim la cazare.

We are very pleased to have been able to create a place in Harghita County that provides meaningful leisure for all ages. Children and adults can get close to the animals living in the park, and they can touch and pet them. In many cases, contact with animals can be a therapeutic nature, as it has a beneficial effect on our physical and mental health.  Nowadays, fewer and fewer pets are kept by families, so one of our goals is to introduce backyard animals and some exotic species, especially to children. The petting zoo is constantly being expanded. We also provide horseback riding and carriage rides with our beautiful pony horses. We welcome all those interested in the “Babusgató” petting zoo and animal park in Subcetate Zetea/Zeteváralja. Tickets: • Adult ticket: 35 RON • Child ticket (3-14): 30 RON
