On June 1, 2003, with a small group of friends, I left Balan, walking along the valley of the Sep (Beautiful) stream towards the Lonely Stone (Piatra Singuratica). Those who were with me at the time fell behind, and then other people joined for the hike.

Black Rocks is located in the Bihor Mountains, near the Vartop Saddle, to the west of it. It is interesting that the locals (if I understood correctly) do not know this name, but use the name Piatra Buna (meaning Good Stone) for this spectacular rock.
