With Helmut and Andi, the two brothers from Arad, who emigrated many years ago to Germany, and their gang of friends, we went to the mountains of Romania twice, to Piatra Craiului and Bucegi, as well as to the Macin mountains and the Danube Delta. And now we have chosen together the Fagaras mountains.
Our tour started at the Barcaciu hut, where the hutkeepers welcomed us as guests. We spent the next 2 nights at the newly renovated Negoiu hut (hats off for what you did there Marian and Roxana), climbing the Fagaras ridge, and enjoying Transylvania as much as we could see!
We moved to Balea Lac, and Brancoveanu Monastery, where the weather conditions were like spring, cool and rainy, yes this is the weather in the mountains!
I was glad to see them healthy after 2 years of Covid being unable to travel, and we enjoyed Sibiu, Brancoveanu Monastery and of course, Ucea de Sus.
See you soon Helmut and Andi, and see you soon in Maramures!
