Saint Anne lake - Ciomat-Puturosu 6.14 km away
Lake Saint Anna is the only well-preserved volcanic crater lake in Eastern Europe. Here are some images from an afternoon outing.

Preacher's Rock - Bodoc Mountains 12.19 km away
In the Bodoc Mountains, west-southwest from the Henter peak, we find a rock formation shaped like a mushroom by erosion, called Preacher's Rock. This 2-meter high rock probably got its name from the pagan Hungarian priests, who preached here in the past.

Walking to the top of Sumuleul Mare - Sumuleu Ciuc 29.94 km away
This was my first attempt at shooting a video.

Roman Baths (Baile Romane) Cetea, Trascau Mountains 186.28 km away
Among the valleys of the Trascau Mountains, the Cetea Gorge best deserves the name of a crevice valley. Here, the waters of the Cetea Stream cut through the Mariuta limestone cliff, flowing through a narrow crevice that is only about 1-2 meters wide.

Blasted Rock (Piatra Puscata) hanging path Cerna Valley 291.85 km away
The Blasted Rock hanging path is located on the geographical right bank of the Cerna River, near the confluence of the Iuta stream, approximately 20 km from Baile Herculane. In this area, the presence of limestone formations has caused the valley to become narrower.

Lady's Stones Rarau Mountains 151.38 km away
The Lady's Stones represent the heart, the mind, and the soul. The first two only help to understand the world when one possesses knowledge (they can be climbed with rock climbing gear), as emotions and thoughts (the two rock towers) obscure reality (the view).

Falco Tinnunculus (Common kestrel) via ferrata (E), the ascent Falcon's Rock, Corbu 102.8 km away
Over Corbu village in Harghita County, on the rocks of Falcon's Rock (Piatra Soimilor), which belong to the Bistrita Mountains, five via ferrata routes have been established. In November 2019, the first three routes of the Falcon's Rock via ferrata were complemented with two additional ones, featuring a roughly 15-meter hanging bridge and a 15-meter-high iron ladder.

Oltet Gorge (Cheile Oltetului) Capatana Mountains 197.65 km away
That day, we had planned to ski at the Ranca resort, situated alongside the Transalpina high altitude mountain road in the Parang Mountains. Unfortunately, the very small snowfall made skiing unfeasible, so we had to find an alternative activity on our way home.
