Călţun lake-Negoiu hostel, through Strunga Ciobanului
Duration: 3 1/2 - 4
Length: km
Height difference: +300/-600 m
Note: Dangerous in the winter
The red streak trail starts at Lacul Călţun. At Portiţa Călţunului the red cross trail takes over the lead and guides us to Strunga Dracului. The rocky area turns into a grassy one which is the threshold to Strunga Ciobanului. On the higher, rockier sections of the pass strings facilitate the climbing. Once we reach the 2308m height we start descending on the other side of the pass. From Piatra Prânzului on it is the blue triangle that shows the way. After a continuous descend we reach Valea Sărăţii, we cross the water, follow a narrow path, go through an area covered by juniper trees and we finaly go into the woods. Once we come out of the woods Negoiu tourist lodge comes into sight.
