Zarnesti Gorges
... them.... just look up :)
We didn't walk to much in the gorges, I guess they are about 3-5 km in length. The road is very good, you don't have to climb difficult paths, or climb rocks or trees :)) I let you take a look at the pictures to see what I mean.
If you go there, it's a must that you also go to Gott restaurant in Brasov, half an hour from the gorges. Best restaurant in the center of ...

Jesus, how many trucks are in this place!
... a good work out.
Four hours of trucks later we were finally bearing down on the town of Brasov on the edge of the Transylvanian Mountain range.

Finally reaching town, we were confronted with a picturesque mountain backdrop emblazoned with a Hollywood-es Brasov sign on the hill.
Very panoramic.
