A picturesque route that takes you through scenic but also historical places.
The trail starts from the lower part of Bălțata, passes by the Orthodox Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary (founded in 1830), passes through the pine forest and reaches the Hunters’ Hut, a good place to stop and picnic. From here we return to the Runc peak and descend to the Albeni saddle, at the end of Albeni Street in the Seaca Valley. It is said that this was a royal prison during the reign of Prince Stephen the Great, hence the name Albeni, from the name of the albini.
From the Albeni saddle you go up to the Chapel of the Ascension of Jesus to Heaven (or Albeni chapel).
From Albeni chapel we descend to the starting point. In spring, here, in the first part of April, we will enjoy the presence of the blossoming rurescue.
The trail is an easy-medium route also good for walking with children.
Let the images do the talking.
