Belvedere Viaduct Cascada Călugărița

👍👍 This was a section of the trail we hiked beginning on the Valea de Stan trail in in
This was an interesting section with much to see. The old buildings and structures for what looks like water works. The tunnel is a cool way to transition back into reality after the beautiful hike in nature.
