The tour offers an incredible experience through a stunning gorge with numerous waterfalls and small lakes where you can also swim. Ladders and footholds require surefootedness, and some passages can only be negotiated with dry feet at low water levels. Bears are primarily encountered along the Transfagarasan, where they like to hang out because they are fed from cars. Since you walk 1.5km along the road and there is no alternative route, you should carry bear spray. The starting point of the tour is not ideal, as you have to drive off-road for a relatively long time, and the road is affected by rockfall. It is better to park in the small parking lot at the switchback where the tour turns off the Transfagarasan into the gorge.
