Preachers Rock Bodoc Mountains 191.4 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.
Ski resort Poiana Brasov Postavarul Mountains 184.6 km away. Shining sun and an Austria-feeling on the impeccable slopes of the ski paradise Poiana Brasov above Brasov. Sunbathing, coffee and refreshing drinks on the terrace of Julius Römer chalet.
Iron path in winter Harghita Madaras 161.6 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.
Ladys Stones Rarau Mountains 199.6 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).
Turcinovac via ferrata and cave Ovcar Banja 374.7 km away. Difficulty level B, total length: 60 m, height difference: 45 m, year of construction: 2010. Climbing the via ferrata is only permitted with the approval of the Extreme Sports Club Armadillo from Cacak, and there is a fee for it.

Waterfalls of Lapos creek Bicaz Gorge 186.4 km away. One of the lesser-known attractions of the Bicaz Gorges is the series of waterfalls along Lapos Creek. This creek flows between Cupas Stone and Bardos Stone before eventually merging with Bicaz Creek, forming spectacular waterfalls beneath the Altar Stone.
Pricske peak Giurgeu Mountains 171.1 km away. If we want to reach Pricske (Prisca) peak, which rises above Gheorgheni and Lazarea, we start from the valley of the Güdüc (Ghidut) stream. Our path leads us past the ruins of a building known as the White House.
