Author’s recommendation
The trail has some steeper climbs, but they aren't very long; the trail also has puddles and mud. For these reasons, I recommend trekking poles and hiking boots.

Safety information
Don't stray from the trail and make some noise—there may be bears in the area, and you don't want to take them by surprise...Roadbook
We set out from Poiana Țapului and follow the road until we reach the entrance to Bucegi National Park, where we turn onto the forest road. Here, we pay the park fee (10 RON as of May 2026) via QR code and continue along the blue-marked trail to Urlătoarea Waterfall. Here we stop to take pictures, then descend along the red-marked trail to Bușteni, at the base of the cable car.
