Carpathian Escapes

You can reach the Equestrian Club Remetea by going on several small streets from the Remetea village, Remetea commune. The horse farm is surrounded by mountains and wide fields. Equestrian Club Remetea supports riding lessons for children aged 7-14. Petred Károly, horse contractor and coach, aims to help rural children who can ride here at an affordable price. The young riders come mostly from the village of Remetea, but they also come from Ditrău, Joseni and Lăzarea. Equestrian Center Remetea is awaiting the horsemen interested in hiking / climbing trips, regardless of age.

From Uz Bence chalet we follow the local road to the house of the forester, from where we approach the ski slopes to the right. We cross the top of the Csipike Slope, following the road to the Miklós Slope that we cross. Following the imaginary line marking the margins of the Orottas crater, we look toward North and see the saddle that will be the turning point to the left. Following the ridge we reach the rocky formation named Kossuth's Rock (the maximum altitude of the trail) located near the ski slope with a similar name. From this point we descend to the cauldron in which we see a savannah, then following the high voltage network we descend on the very visible path, oriented towards S-SE, this path will cause us to cross some muddy areas, after which we will intersect the road forest Piricske, where several holiday homes are visible. Following the stream of the brook, after a few crossings of the meadow, sprinkled by volcanic bombs, we find to the left DN 13 A at about 4.5 km from Miercurea Ciuc (end of the mark). After approx. 0.7 km downhill along the paved road, we reach the intersection with a country road (left), called Ciba street, served by local bus races. The trail is in the Harghita mountains.

Route status is relative. The eastern ridge does not have obvious protection in the first 3 lengths, Vânătorii de Munte has orientation problems, the sixth regrouping from "Umbra Muchiei" is made in friends. Access Route: Going down to the keys, about 200 meters ahead of the tunnel, a road crossing the Bicaz heads left. A few years ago here was the Cheile Bicazului Chalet, completely destroyed by a fire. The trail (obviously from place to place) starts in the forest and after about 5 minutes descends to Lapoşului valley where you can pass to the other shore. After another 10 minutes of climbing, you reach a fir tree on which an arrow symbolizes a split. To the left, go to the entrances on most routes, and to the right onto the entrances to the Northwest Pillar and the Classic Route. Retract route: All routes reach the peak. From here, the Classic Route (2-3 bobbins depending on the ropes we have) goes downwards and from the entrance it continues descending to the point of branching.

Route description: LC 1: We start on a light track. Then there is a vertical crack that closes, the steps being in this area. LC 2: It goes up a few meters straight up, then starts in a fairly long traverse to the left. At one point, we have a downward step a little more difficult. It follows the passage of an edge and the entrance to a clear, lighter Bavaria. LC 3: Length 3 starts with the left traverse, this time easier. Then climb vertically through a more friable area. Then there is a long oblique crack left. The steps here are much more delicate. Towards the end, the crack breaks out and climbs over a poorly assured tray, underneath two sloppy dips that move, the next assurance far above. LC 4: It is the longest, the most difficult free climb, but it also works artificially. After a new left-hand traverse, the large crack that bridges the wall is caught. There is a tree after several bad pitches are passed, but there is no problem because there are spits from place to place. There is a hoop and from here we continue on a well-knit vertical die. There are a few steps of free interest, not very heavy. After the dihedral, we are overtaking a completely washed face where it is probably the free step of the route. LC 5: It's short and light. A short straight crossing, then upward on the large sockets into the forest, the final regrouping of the tree. The two lengths can merge.
