Great day!
I had a fantastic first experience around Piatra Craiului which is a beautiful national park based around 30 minutes from the city of Brasov. Radu the guide picked me up from my hotel and we hiked around the base of the mountain and walked around 700m upwards towards the cabin. The walk was beautiful with Radu showing his experience with the route and pace of the hike. We stopped off halfway at the cabin for lunch and plodded back down to the car park. We saw bears, foxes and plenty rock climbers! This day trip was from 9-4, but could have been longer if I hadn't have to catch a train.
Would recommend!
