Piatra Craiului - always magnificent, but amazing in winter!

Trail: we started from Fantana lui Botorog, crossed Poiana Zanoaga and soon reached Curmatura hut (yellow stripe trail mark). Continued (red circle) to Saua Crapaturii where we geared up with crampons, safety helmets and ice axes and soon after started ascent to Vf Turnu. This part of the trail is secured with chains and cables, however, it get very technical if covered with snow - which was not our case. After Vf Turnu, we continued the ridge trail to Vf Padina Popii and finally to Vf Ascutit. Than descended to Curmatura and back to Fantana lui Botorog

Descriere traseu: Plecare de la Fantana lui Botorog, catre cabana Curmatura (banda galbena). De aici am urmat punct rosu catre Saua Crapaturii si am continuat catre Vf Turnu pe o portiune din traseu asigurata cu lanturi si cabluri. Dupa Vf Turnu am continuat traseul de creasta catre Vf Padina Popii si apoi catre Vf Ascutit. Apoi am coborat la cabana Curmatura si inapoi la Fantana lui Botorog.
