“Empress Sisi”-hike
The hike starts at Hotel Roman, just upstream of Baile Herculane. The concrete building from the Ceausescu period hides an old Roman bath in the basement. We follow the trail with red triangles through beautiful thermophilic deciduous forest with large oak, beech and lime trees to Foișorul Ciorici / Stanca lui Sisi (wonderful view of the national park from the rocky pulpit) and then on to Foișorul Roșu (panoramic view). If you have enough time and energy, you can follow the ridge ("Varful Elisabeta") through lush deciduous forests to the "Elisabet Spring" (Izvoarul Elisabeth).
