2. “Maramureș Walking Tour”: The 3-6 walking days across Maramureș can be done exclusively in the mountains (including Rodna National Park, Maramureș Natural Park, and Băiuț UNESCO virgin forests), at 1000–2300 m altitude, or you can walk between traditional villages on small paths and roads, reaching also the ridges that separate the valleys, at 250–800 m altitude, up to the highest, off-the-beaten-path and most isolated human settlements, at 1000+ m above sea level, through a mixture of hay fields, small forests, arable land, and orchards, meeting local farmers and craftspeople.
3. “Jewish Maramureș Tour”: see, in 1 or 2 days, Elie Wiesel House, Drimer House, the Sephardic Synagogue, the new Hasidic Synagogue (constructed in 2021), the Jewish Cemetery, Holocaust Monument, and Kahan Court (all in Sighet).
