Oltet Gorges - Capatanii Mountains 23.26 km away
That day, we had planned to ski at the Ranca resort, situated alongside the Transalpina road in the Parang Mountains. Unfortunately, the minimal snowfall made skiing unfeasible, so we had to find an alternative activity on our way home.

Echernwand Klettersteig Hallstatt, Austria 842.73 km away
I climbed the via ferrata on the Echernwand rock wall at dusk. This route is located above one of Austria's most beautiful lakes, and above Hallstatt. The iron climbing route was quite challenging at times, with the most exciting section being the Roll-dachl, an exposed rock formation, shaped like a nose.

With snowshoes in the Tihu creek valley Rastolita 231.19 km away
We met geotrekking treasure hunters from Gheorgheni, Miercurea Ciuc and Targu Mures in Rastolita. We entered the Calimani Mountains with an off-road vehicle, along the Rastolita and Tihu streams. As it turned out, the well-worn forest road can also be traveled by car for a good distance.

Iron path Harghita-Madaras 186.32 km away
Amateur filming in Harghita-Madaras, holding the camera by hand in the car, and helmet-mounted on the via ferrata. I climbed an iron path for the first time in my life on the Nyerges cliffs (Stancile Seii), I didn't have the right equipment yet. That's where I fell in love with climbing.
