Map of Făgăraş mountains: Cota 2000 Salvamont house - Capra lake
Our marked Blue Cross route starts at Salvamont Chalet 2000, passing by the ruined building of the TCH (Hydropower Construction Trust) and begins climbing through a stony valley. This valley looks like the canyon of the Moara Dracilor valley.
It does not require great experience, just boots standing and great attention, because you are stealing the surrounding landscape. After the stony area we reach a meadow where the very visible signs lead us in the direction of descent towards Lake Capra. After a few steps, a new panorama of the Goat's Hearth opens, where the lakes of Capra and Caprita are shining under the Capra saddle at the altitude of 2230. Here are other markings:
