Day 51 ROMANIA Rau de Mori

We had so much left over from the Spanish Romanian PUNCT meal that we had our breakfast and some of for dinner too.

After breakfast we set off to do a hike at Colt Fortress but when we got there because the fortress was perched above a main busy road, we weren't inspired to climb.

We drove to Rausor and found a Rausor Waterfall hike that was two kilometres and graded as moderate. There were a few river crossings where we had to balance on very slippery rocks. Fortunately they were only a narrow crossing. Ruby could not resist dipping her feet in the freezing cold water but could only tolerate for 2s. She had numb cold feet but happy and refreshed.

We found that we had more time as the first hike was short so we found another hike to a saddle of the Retezet range. We trudged through snow at 1445m and came to a stop where there was the fast flowing stream from the melting a snow, at 1,545 metres. We were unable to complete the hike so turned back around to descend.Read more
