PIATRA CAPREI | GURGHIU MOUNTAINS

Our boots are taking us back to the Gurghiu Mountains, this time to Piatra Caprei, with a stop along the way at the Erőss Zsolt Spring, at the source of the Veszes stream.
We’ll start from Remetea and make our way through the forest until we reach the Erősek laposa meadow. From there, we continue towards the spring dedicated to Erőss Zsolt, located on the southern side of the large meadow beneath Piatra Caprei.
After reaching the summit of Piatra Caprei, we’ll take a well-deserved break for a snack before heading back through the Katalina meadow, eventually reaching the bridge over the Eszenyő stream.
