The Siberian Husky is a mid-sized, dense-coat working dog breed originated in North-Eastern Siberia.  It's easily recognisable due to its odourless thick fur and the triangular ears, usually grey or silver coloured. Its body is fairly dense. According to its initial purpose, they are quite exceptional while under harness with light load at moderate speeds, they can travel long distances. Their eyes give the impression of them being quite friendly and they are indeed a great company; their breeders greatly appreciate them. At the moment, our Husky team is made out of 46 dogs and with their help we're wandering throughout the day, mostly in the Harghita mountains. During these tours, not only we have the chance to experience the snowy mountains, but we also get to experience the flock, their behaviour and daily routine.

A bobsleigh track, set up in Lunca de Sus commune, has become, in a very short time, an attraction for the tourists visiting the Ghimeş area or for the adrenaline lovers who come here to experience this sensation. Besides the adrenaline, tourists can enjoy a beautiful landscape, which many compare with those seen in Austria or Switzerland.

The expedition starts from the village of Sub Cetate, Deság street, near the bridge over Târnava Mare, from the Deságtravel guesthouse. The river in this area is quite sluggish, perfect for practice the theoretical training. After the start, the valley narrows gradually and the river becomes a real mountain river. Here we do not miss sightseeing or adventures and the participants are not subject to any dangers. The hard parts of the journey alternate with the easier ones, the program culminating in a mini cascade. After a thrilling trip we will reach the village of Zetea (Tófalu) where our rafting expedition ends. The rafting expedition is led by experienced instructors  The degree of difficulty: WW1 (easy) - WW2 (medium) is also recommended for beginners.  Location: Târnava Mare river, from Sub Cetate (Deság) - Zetea (Tófalu)  Program duration (Together with theoretical instruction): 2-2.5 hours  Maximum capacity: 11 people + 4 children (8-12 years)  Route length: 6-7 km.
