We really enjoyed our bear viewing experience! It was rainy going to the park, but it cleared up nicely once we got situated in our "hide" The viewing area was protected from the elements (like a glass fronted cabin really) and bears would come to feed in viewing distance. I particularly liked the interaction of bears and the cunning little foxes. It was definitely the highlight of my trip to Romania.
