Beautiful view of Lake Galcescu

Highlight • Viewpoint

The trail up until this viewing point is very nice. The landscape is really beautiful. If you want to go down to Lake Galcescu, the path is very steep and there are plenty of small rocks that are slippery. Because it was about to rain when I was there, I decided not to go on that path, as it looked a bit dangerous for wet conditions especially. I'm sure it's worth going down to the lakes, but make sure the weather is good and you have proper hiking gear.
