Through the mud on Gordon Mountain, above Farkaslaka (Lupeni commune, Harghita county, Transilvania), on a cloudy afternoon, at the end of February. The destination is the Heart of Jesus lookout, nicknamed as Pléhkrisztus (The Tin Christ).

Varghis gorges in winter 17.02 km away
I went out to admire the ice stalagmites (standing icicles) in the Varghis Gorge. Anyone arriving here at the end of winter can observe meter-high ice stalagmites in the entrance area of Meresti Cave (now known as Orban Balazs Cave).

Iron path - Harghita-Madaras 24.28 km away
Amateur filming in Harghita-Madaras, holding the camera by hand in the car, and helmet-mounted on the via ferrata. I climbed an iron path for the first time in my life on the Nyerges cliffs (Stancile Seii), I didn't have the right equipment yet.

Iron path in winter - Harghita Madaras 24.29 km away
This is already the sixth time I've climbed the via ferrata route set up on the rocky cliffs of Seii Peak near Harghita Madaras. Although the forecast suggests that the weather should be nice, I am greeted by a sky covered in clouds.

Via Ferrata Centenario C.A.O Monte Grona, Prealpi Lombarde, Lombardia 1240.82 km away
In the magnificent rocky world of Monte Grona, the Centenario via ferrata leads upwards, which I had the opportunity to climb accompanied by lizards. Although it was cloudy and gloomy, I had a great view of Lake Lugano and Lake Como along the way.

Fairy Cliff (Peretele Zanelor) via ferrata route Vadu Crisului 229.3 km away
In Vadu Crisului, in the Padurea Craiului Mountains, on the right bank of the Crisul Repede, you can find the newest, in chronological order (2015) the fifth Transylvanian, new type of via ferrata route. I will not count here the traditional iron paths, the high-mountain hiking trails, partly secured with iron cables, or the rock canyons with iron ladders and footbridges.

God's bridge (Bozhite mostove, Bozhi Most) Vratsa 360.38 km away
Anyone who has been to Bulgaria may be familiar with the Prohodna Cave, affectionately known as the Eyes of God; the Devetashka Cave, illuminated by seven windows in its ceiling; and perhaps they have also seen the Wonderful Bridges in the Rhodope Mountains. But there is another spectacular natural stone bridge in this country, known as the Bridge of God.
