This is an astonishing and extremely attractive viewpoint. If you don’t want to hike here, you may as well get the cable car from Bușteni to Babele and hike down for 30 minutes, because this place is exceptional.

Hiking

Hike to Caraiman cross was not dangerous except some exposed areas with chains but nothing too dangerous. Definitelly best part of the hike to Omu peak.

Fantastic via ferrata to the Heldenkreuz. However, it is advisable to wear good shoes and definitely not be afraid of heights. The route is demanding.
