Rock climbing

The small hut is located about halfway along the route to Moldoveanu. It is a good place to stay and eat. The prices are good and the landlady is very nice. But you can only pay in cash and in lei. There is no internet or network connection. There is also a small lake in front of the hut.

Rustic hut with good, hearty food. After the ascent from the valley, get some refreshments here and then head towards Moldoveanu :)

Simple, beautifully situated stone hut with large dormitories – thin wool blankets and pillows provided, sleeping bag recommended. Good drinking water from a mountain spring, very simple food (vegetarian options, however, only available upon reservation the night before!). There are toilets and sinks with cold water for washing. In summer, the dining room and dormitories are not heated in the evenings and at night. Breakfast is served from 7 a.m., allowing for an early start to Moldoveanu.
The hut has comparatively high prices, which is understandable given its high and remote location. Reservations are a good idea in summer.
