Grohotiș-hegység

I would rate this route as hard, because the dirt road is rather rocky. This means that you don't have such a good grip and it's not so comfortable to ride it for some 50 km. Other than that it's a lovely scenery for the most part. You may come across some sheep here and there, but the dogs guarding them are well behaved and don't bother you. There are a couple of springs from where you can replenish your water supply. Most of the time there is no shade, so be prepared accordingly. For our group of 3 it was exactly 6h of bike time, but 8h30m overall (including breaks). We ran it in reverse, because we preferred to have a longer, steady, mild climb instread of an abrupt climb and a long descent.
