Hiking in the Fagaras Mountains should be on every hiker's list! Traverse Romania's longest ridge, climb its highest peak and soak in beauty. The entire route can easily be divided into shorter or longer stages, depending on your fitness level and how fast or slow you want to tackle it. You can find a full description on my website, Roamaniac. Enjoy!
Distance 12.8 km
