One of the most popular trails in Braşov, this is basically a hiking trail (marked with blue stripe) that takes you from Poiana Mică to Pietrele lui Solomon. Generally, it's not very steep, following the contour lines, but it still has some narrower technical sections, with (off-camber) roots and rocks, which can be quite challenging in the wet. For an extra challenge, check out the direct version of this trail.

Access Info

There are two entries to this trail:
- going towards Braşov on DN1E, right where the Poaina Braşov sign is, there's a narrow path between two fences on the right
- alternatively, a few meters forward after the house there's the marked version
