Flowy trail that goes mostly through meadows, offering you great views of the surrounding area. It has two difficult sections through some steeps filled with rocks. It also has multiple climbs, some of them quite technical. It takes you to a beautiful place called Bobot, ideal for a quick cold bath in a small gorge.
Not recommended after rain, because some parts of it can get really muddy.

Access Info

Just before the exit from Pârlagele village on DC9, goes between two fences.

This trail is unsanctioned.

Disclaimer

You may encounter animals (cows, goats or sheeps) glazing in the area, try not to scare them and be respectful with the farmers
