# Family Weekend

An engaging family adventure that pairs close encounters with majestic European bison in their oak habitat with medieval knight legends. From the viewing footbridges of the Dragoș Vodă reserve and the fairy-tale woodlands of Sadoveanu's country retreat, the route explores the armories and ramparts of Neamț Fortress. The journey wraps up in Piatra Neamț among 30-million-year-old Oligocene fossil fish and realistic dioramas of Carpathian wildlife.
