Bucegi Mountains represent the central point of trail running in Romania, and the route we have designed reaches some of the most important points of interest, such as Omu peak, passing through Şaua Strunga and Bătrâna refuge. The 58 km route is the perfect combination between the steep slopes of Bucegi Mountains and the gentler slopes of Leaota mountains, taking us to the finish line.
