Our blaze starts from the DN75 road, from the tourist centre at Arieșeni. It goes along the foresters' path at the Cepilor brook.

We try a shorter way at the first turn, our blaze goes in the forest, there shall we climb upwards. Soon we get to a zone full with brooks. Here our blaze leaves the foresters` path, and starts crowling. Our way goes through many clearings and meadows.

We get at the alps, where we find marked pillars showing us the way to the Bihor peak (1849m). There we can find the Tv station too. Here comes the red line, which marks the main road of Bihor Vlădeasa.

Vârtop saddle - Bihorul peak

From here we go with the red line farther. Descending circa 350m into the Biharea saddle, then following a by-pass we get to the Tăul Mare lake through a little pine-grove.
