Since the western side of the Bucegi mountains were an area we’ve never been before, we decided to take a day trip and explore a bit.

We started from Simon village, following the path marked with yellow triangle symbols, until we reached Moara Dracului (Devil’s mill) waterfall.

At this time of the year, the water flow was reduced, however, it’s still a nice place to discover.

We then followed the blue triangle taking us to Gutanu meadow. This way we got a good view of the western ridge of the Bucegi mountains.

We then visited the old mountain hut “Bangaleasa” which is not doing great these days, and closed the loop back to Simon village on the blue stripe track.
