The story

Hodina Fest in Pohrebea

Hodina Fest gathers visitors in Pohrebea, a small village on the Dniester River about 37 kilometers from Chisinau, for a program built around relaxation rather than spectacle. Founded in 2019 by Klumea, the festival typically runs each August and combines yoga, zumba, pilates, massage and kayaking with vegetarian food, wine tasting, reading corners, horse-driving demonstrations, craft displays and live music.

Pohrebea is not a village most visitors to Moldova would find on their own.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Hodina Fest distinguishes itself by treating rest as the main attraction rather than an afterthought

02

The mystery stays covered

Where most Moldovan festivals build a day around food, music or craft, this one, founded by Klumea in 2019, opens with movement and recovery: yoga sessions, zumba, pilates classes and massage, paired with kayaking on the Dniester itself

03

The city starts moving

Vegetarian cuisine and wine tasting round out the physical program, while reading areas invite quieter pauses between activities

04

The water draws everyone in

Horse-driving demonstrations and craft displays add a rural, hands-on dimension, and live music carries the day into evening

05

The old stones answer

Set in the small riverside village of Pohrebea, roughly 37 kilometers from Chisinau, the festival offers an easy escape for city residents seeking a slower pace without a long journey
