Into the forest and near the waterfall

The mountains are not very close to our town, but near enough for a short Sunday drive. There are a few nice resorts, forming a chain in Prahova's Valley. Sinaia is the first and best known, but the others are worth a visit, too.
If you drive past Sinaia, you get to Busteni (meaning "Logs"), and after only an hour long walk in the fir-tree wood you can find a waterfall called Urlatoarea ("The Roaring"), not the biggest one in Romania, but a quite popular place.
I'm inviting you to try this short trip in the woods, by the quick mountain stream, in a half-cloudy-half-sunny early spring day.

Following the stream into the mountains must be a wonderful walk.
Is it a popular trekking area?
