For our last hiking day, we aim for the Peleaga Peak, the highest peak in the mountains at 2509 m. To see as much of the mountains as possible, we set off on a different pathway than the day before, so we headed up the Pietrele Valley.<\/p>\n

From the Pietrele Chalet, we followed the yellow triangle mark \"\" in the woods, and soon we reached an intersection, where we switched to the blue triangle mark\"\", which we only followed for a shorter section. We changed the mark again, at the next intersection and turned to the red cross mark\"\". Simply, we always turned to the path that led up.
\nThe red cross mark led to the Gentiana Chalet.<\/p>\n
