Dear hikers,

We set off on a hike curious and eager to explore and push our limits.
The ascent to Bărcaciu Chalet offers us spectacular autumn landscapes, time for reflection and connection with nature and with our fellow hikers.
It is a hike that may challenge beginners, but they will surely complete it successfully.
Once at the top, we enjoy the view, stories, and a cup of mountain herbal tea gathered by the chalet hosts.
