Summary: This book doesnt do much more than intended
Comment: In Romania hiking is somewhat hard for foreigners outside of the more populated areas due to the lack of signage as well as a lack of availability in directions in hiking from some sources in parts of the country. The book will tell you enough information if you want to go to main tourist hiking destinations and use forest/walker trails as well as some maps on finding your way around while trying not to get lost. While it is not quite high quality, think more of the late 80's early 90's street maps it will get you where you need to go in the designated areas. Some of the most scenic views are slightly off the beaten path and require distancing yourself from this book. Romania's mountains are beautifull and worth the hike this will tell you a little about what you can see and hopefully make you decide positively on your preplanned adventure. It is always a good idea however when hiking in Romania to know your surroundings as well as having someone who is Romanian with you so that you may explore more and have a more enjoyable time.

Summary: Much practical info
Comment: Just came back from a few days hiking in the Piatra Craiului in Romania. Unfortunately I had three days of non-stop rain so I wasn't able to do any of the hikes from the guide that are on top of the ridge of the mountain. Instead I walked a few routes below the tree line. I did find the general info in the book very useful. It tells you about train travel, accomodation, mountain huts (cabanas), equipment, flora and fauna, useful words and phrases and useful addresses. Besides this guide I would also bring a detailed map of the area where you're hiking. The maps in the guide are too small and lack detail in case you want to trot outside the marked routes.
