DESCRIPTION<\/h4>\n

Trail route:<\/strong> Remetea \u2013 Dr\u0103goteni \u2013 \u015eoimu\u0219 \u2013 Petreasa \u2013 Remetea<\/p>\n

This is a short and very easy route, well suited as an after lunch outdoor activity with friends or family. The route starts from the center of Remetea village, following the road to Ro\u0219ia. 100 meters past the bridge over Valea Ro\u0219ia (Ro\u0219ia Valley) take the asphalt road to the left, towards Dr\u0103goteni (there\u2019s a road sign on the right side). Follow the asphalt road that runs parallel to the river for a while and then turns sharply to the right and starts going up a gentle slope. The climb is short and when you get to the top you already have a view of part of Dr\u0103goteni village, located on the hill on the right. Follow the asphalt road and go downhill until you reach an intersection; here, you can make a right to reach the center of the village or a left to go to \u0218oimu\u0219.<\/p>\n

In Dr\u0103goteni you can visit a weaving workshop or women who still practice Easter egg painting (this is a traditional activity in this area, therefore the technique, chromatics and designs are different than in Bucovina). To continue along the route, take a left turn at the intersection and start a rather steep ascent passing by the last houses of Dr\u0103goteni. The upper part is pretty steep, so if you\u2019re not so fit you might need to walk alongside your bicycle. Fortunately, the climb is short and the asphalt disappears with the last houses, bringing you onto a gravel road that will take you to the next village. The hilltop offers a beautiful view of Beiu\u0219 Depression in the foreground and P\u0103durea Craiului and Codru-Moma Mountains in the background, on the horizon.<\/p>\n

Descending towards \u0218oimu\u0219, you\u2019ll cross a bridge over Ro\u0219ia river and find yourself on asphalt once again. Follow the road to Petreasa and, before the uphill section, you can see a church and a gravel road to the right. You can take this road to the wooden church in Pietroasa, a historical monument dating back to 1752.<\/p>\n

Continue on the road to Petreasa where you\u2019ll meet the county road that goes to Beiu\u0219 and turn left at the intersection towards Remetea village, which is only 3 km away.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
