As is the case with most hill-stations that aren't snow-covered all year, Sinaia makes a fine hiking destination in summer, combining all resort facilities with excellent hiking routes and vistas. If you want an easy hike up the mountain, visit the tourist information center for a map, and follow the white-red-white markers. In summer 2023, there was a logging operation ongoing in the first leg, up to cota 1400. You can easily hike up and take the gondolas down.
Castelul Peleș
Begun by King Carol I in 1873 as a summer residence, these gothic revival fantasy castles pay homage to nearly every architectural style in Europe, as well as including all the mod-cons, such as lifts, central heating, plumbing and electric sky lights. Peleş contains a large armory collection, secret passages, imperial suit, a hall of mirrors, stone lions and everything a fairytale castle 'should' have. Set in peaceful forests and mountain meadows, away from the bustle of Sinaia, the castles are also a popular wedding venue. During the summer, craft stalls line the entrance drive selling local goods. The English guided tours are excellent.
Castelul Pelișor
Mănăstirea Sinaia
The monastery has two sections: the original area (built 1690 -1695) and the newer one (1842 - 1846). The religious objects museum is not very professional, but has a copy of the first Bible printed in Romania and an interesting collection of icons. Driving from Bucharest north on the National road No. 1 you have to turn left in Sinaia and follow the signs.

Parcul Dimitrie Ghica
Nice park with beautiful old buildings surrounding it, such as the Casino and old hotels. There is also a small museum in the park.
