This year I went to my home city with the car. My first stop was in Fagaras where I saw an ancient fortress then I made a short hike to Balea waterfall and made frequent stops in the mountain pass: Transfagarasanul. At the exit from this pass I spent some time in the Vidraru lake to see one of the great dams on the Arges river. When I was at home I visited some place in my county: Ponoare and Balutei canyon. On the return trip I cross the mountains in the highest road from Romania: Transalpina. After this I stopped to Vidra lake, passed on the Lotru river and seen a fortified church on the way.

Cuejdel lake and river, Romania
In the 9-10 June weekend I went to Cuejdel lake following a path to the Cuejdel lake and going back I followed the Cuejdel river. It was an amazing experience where I saw hundreds of dragonflies, butterflies, lizards, plants and I eat the wonderful wild strawberries. I spent the night in the tent next to the river with the sound of the water and many many flies for neighbors.

Solo road-trip in Romania
In the end of May beginning of June I took advantage of a few free days and I made a solo road-trip to the mountains.
Going alone is not recommended for your safety, is not good for your finances but I highly recommend for your mental health. I think going alone it has a kind of cleansing effect when is just you and the road and you have to do it from time to time.
I started with something I wanted to do a few times : Bicaz canyon on foot. The second day I walked a bit around the Red Lake, passed through Izvorul Muresului drive to the next stop in Saint Anne lake where I had a amazing encounter with a brown bear. In the same place I took a guided tour of a swamp which remained after the old crater: Tinovul Mohos. The last adventure of the day was to see Balyanos where I saw a Sulphorous cave and encounter a couple of bears. The third day of my trip was to visit the medieval center of the Sighisoara in the day and the night. In my way back I made a stop to Praid where I visited the Praid salt mine and the amazing Praid salt canyon.
