This route connects the two most important peaks in Brasov: Postavaru Peak and Piatra Mare Peak on a distance of 50 kilometers.
It is a route that the locals call "Twin Peaks" and it starts and ends in Piata Sfatului, in the historical centre of Brasov.
The GR58 is a rewarding but also strenuous hike. Not difficult, technically, but for sure you will need your perseverance and muscles. The mountains of the Queyras get less rain than the popular Écrins in the west. You will climb high, a handful of passes go over 2.800 m, one is even over 3.000 m. Highlight is the view on the Monte Viso on the Italian side.
