Brasov - Trail Distances Map

Here is an useful map that I use to calculate the distances of my trail running routes. It includes most popular trails on the mountains around Brasov, from the old city, up to Postavarul Mountain top.

The distances are carefully measured with the path measuring tool in Google Earth. Where the roads and trails are hidden by trees, I used GPS recorded tracks as guide for the measurements.

The dots on the map mark main crossroads. In order to keep the map clean and simple, I used straight lines to mark the trails. Winding routes with many bends appear to be much shorter on this map than in reality.
