Şaua Serbănei – Refugiul Cânaia – Şaua Ştefleşti

Marking: Red circle on a white background

Full route name: Şaua Serbănei - Refugiul Cânaia – under Cindrel Peak, upstream of Şaua Ştefleşti

 

 From 1886 meters, from Șaua Serbănei, the route takes hikes to Cânaia refuge, for a well-deserved stop, then climbing to the Cindrel Peak, the highest massif that watches over the depression of the Iezerul Mare glacial lake. Our recommendation is to cover the route in May-June, when the peonies bloom at Cânaia.
