EVENT DETAILS

CAMP VENUE

Our camp will be based near Păltiniș in the south of Sibiu. Situated on a beautiful ski slope right at the base of the Southern Carpathians, the venue will be our basecamp to explore the surrounding networks of trails. The route into the venue is an asphalt road with a short bit of dirt at the end, providing easy access for campervans. Cars and trailers can be parked in the lot at the bottom of the resort. Please note that this parking area is unsecured, so ensure your trailer can be properly locked. 

RIDING

Prior to the event start, we'll provide GPX files for ADV and dual-sport bikes, from easy to more challenging trails, with all routes being rated for their difficulty level. We encourage attendees to create small groups and ride with like-minded new friends to explore the huge selection of trails in the Southern Carpathians. Riding is only permitted on the routes that we provide. Most of them are only accessible via legal public roads, so your vehicle must be registered and insured. 

MUSIC

Live music on Friday and Saturday nights.

Dusty Lizard Campout Romania

5 unusual days in an unusual place with truly extraordinary people—featuring a program that didn't feel restrictive yet offered everything an off-roader could wish for. Thanks to the MoskoMoto team for this unique event. I have rarely experienced an event where you see so many people with a constant smile on their faces. I’d love to join in again in 2027.
Cheers, Harry from Munich

Best Time

Attending the Dusty Lizard in Romania was a dream. I met friends from Europe new and old while creating lasting memories. The event was flawless and ran super crisply. I attended all 5 days. Tracks were fun and the events in camp phenomenal. Thanks Mosko! Now it's time for me to come "home" and attend a DL in the US!

Looking forward for the next one!

Lived in a bubble for few days, just riding my bike with likeminded people and having fun at night.

Have only two complains:

- I choose the three days pack, next time I'll take the full five days package!
- Going to the bathroom wasn't pleasant at all. I don't pretend a 5 stars toilet in the middle of nowhere, but I wouldn’t like to see (and smell) all the history of people before me, every time I open the toilet lid 😅

Having said that, all the Mosko team did a fantastic job at building the camp, it was a joy to stay there, it was like been with the family.

Fun event, but beginners beware

This is a fun event, but if you are a beginner in offloading the routes can be challenging especially if you depend on your bike to get you back home.

However, the routes are awesome and the camplife after the rides (acres-ride?) is fun and nice to meet like minded people!

Perhaps in a next event there can be more of the guided tours, that was really useful!
