Domeniul Schiabil Sureanu — Attraction in Cugir

The slopes are good and well maintained. You can ride from one to the other, there is no really predefined path on where you should go, which is nice. They are marked if you wanna keep on a slope, but you have the freedom to go to another easily. The whole place is just freedom. People do not cram together and there is enough space for everyone to ride, freely, at his own pace. View is amazing!

I would have given it 5 start but cannot: the access road from the Oasa lake until the resort is a mess. Over 20+ km of off-road with ice and mud/stones and with a normal car you will hit the ground/ice with the sump shield or front bumper which is really unpleasant. The idea is to go ski/snowboard and not destroy your car. Recommended: a tall 4x4 equipment rental/repair: unavailable/closed you have to drive back couple of km to find some equipment if you don't own one/have a damage to yours and need a quick repair. -sad to see that in the couple of years since the resort exists, nobody gave a s* about the road to the resort and have to drive 20+ km in over 1h-1:30h

Was nice, but I'll choose another resort. Fix the road till there or at least level it a bit...

Read the reviews of others and almost everyone is complain about the road. Yes, the local authorities can be easily blamed but that's not an excuse. Make a complaint box, let people submit their complains about the road and sue the local authorities for losing customers, based on the complaints. Do something against it, not just blaming and...

PLEASE DO LOOK AT THE DIRECTIONS HOW TO GET HERE ON THEIR WEBSITE -

We trusted Google Maps navigation on how to reach this place, and it sent us southwards past Cugir, which is ‘exactly’ the route that the administrators of this ski area highly discourage. This led us through mountain roads which slowly turned into ice, and at 2.5 hours in, the road literally became too icy and steep for us to continue: it led us to glide backwards off the mountain road..

Since the only possibility was to turn around, it took us another 2.5 hours to reach Cugir again... We spent ~5 hours in the mountains without being able to reach the ski area, and had to abandon our plans for a day of skiing. This is of course absolutely not the fault of the administrators, but let it be an example of why you need to prepare yourself well for your trip here, and don’t blindly trust on technology. Take snow...

Am schiat 3 zile pe aceasta partie (sau partii cum vreti sa le spuneti) insa nu cred ca a doua oara ma voi mai duce, cel putin nu curand.

Am sosit joi dupamasa insa era inceput de sezon( weekend-ul de 1 decembrie) si era inchis. Am aflat de la un "paznic" ca se deschide vineri " Ok, nici o problema oricum era tarziu, pornim maine cu o pofta de schiat"...asa credeam noi. Ajungem Vineri pe la aproximativ 12 dupa o ora de mers pe un drum ingust de 10km dupa nenumarate opriri pentru a ajuta oameni inconstienti ce merg la munte fara lanturi si cu cauciucuri de vara. Ne luam cartelele de 1 zi (100 lei) si incepem distractia. Cea mai aproape cabana de cautat cazare se afla la 5km de partie Fiind inceput de sezon partia nu era pregatita de un ratrac(nici nu am vazut unul prin zona). Era deschis doar principalul teleski (C4, C3, C2 - C4 fiind cea mai "mare" de 800m). Teleski -ul vechi, ruginit unde in prima zi a fost curatat de hainele noastre, ( una din prietene a fost nevoita sa-si duca la curatatorie chimica echipamentul de ski ). cam 80-90% din ele erau functionale, restul erau rupte. Timpul de asteptare a fost intre 20-40 min la Teleski,. Desi coada se extindea deja in sus catre partie (50 de persoane cel putin) din cauza celor ce picau dupa urcare, teleski-ul mergea gol si cate 6-7 "scaune"(am numarat) pana se pozitiona urmatorul skior pe pozitie , deci totala lipsa de coordonare si organizare.

La baza partiei este un singur butic cu alcool , bauturi calde si ceva de rontait, atat.

Duminica s-a deschis si telescaun-ul insa din aproximativ 90-100 de scaune erau disponibile doar 40, restul neavand pe ce sa stai(doar cadrul de metal), astfel dupa randul de 40 asteptai 3-4 min pana ajungea primul functional. Utilizarea lui era de 2 puncte asta pentru cei ce luau pe puncte si nu pe zi.

Sus pe varful Ausel unde te dadeai jos de pe telescaun exista o cabana destul de mare insa cu aceleasi produse, alcool, bauturi calde si de rontait.

Partia a fost foarte proasta ,pe partea varfului Ausel (telescaun) si pana se intersecta cu C4 ( vezi harta), nebatucita decat de skiori si cu pietre pe mijlocul ei. Am avut ghinionul sa prindem o ceata densa astfel fiindca era prost semnalizata pentru aceste conditii multi ieseau de pe ea si ramaneau prinsi in zapada mare de pe margini ( 80cm in acea perioada). Partia principala a fost ok.

Ofer 2 stele, desi ar fi meritat 1, pentru privelistea minunata care te intampina cand ajungi sus insa serviciile si starea partiei d.p.m.d.v. au fost oribile luand si in considerare ca pretul era mai mare decat de ex. la Cavnic unde serviciile si calitatea partiei sunt...
