    In the Poiana Stanile there is also the St. Anthony's Chapel, a special sketch that seems to embellish you at rest and contemplation of the surrounding beauty. Then, the forest road continues to a meadow where there is also a terrace dug in the mountainside. From this place begins the path that climbs to the plateau on Ceahlau. After a short climb through the fir forest the first bushes of juniper trees appear, after which the path follows a level curve in the middle of the slope until you reach the mouth of the trough, on the top of the Schiop Foot.
    Like the other Ceahlau rocks, Stanila's rocks also carry their legend. The locals tell of a poor shepherd who, in ancient times, populated these lands with his sheep. Chipes and truffles at the port, he had heard that here are the richest pastures in the greenery of the whole Moldova, but also the mildest sun left by God on earth. One day, when Stanila was with the sheep grazing in the brains of the mountains, she met Maria, in front of the richest boat from those parts. This was a very beautiful pastorita that Stanila fell in love with. Because Stanila was a poor shepherd and did not have many sheep, Mary did not want to hear from him, although he had a heart of gold. Annoyed, poor Stanila searched for the highest rocks in those places and threw himself from them. Since then, those rocks have been named.
