if you are going to cross whole Fagaras along main ridge , there are two main possibilities :

a) from the east - From Brasov by train to Zarnesti (quite often ) , from there on foot or you can convince someone to take you about 10-15 km to Rudarita ( Rudarica ).

b) from the west - from Sibiu you can get to Turnu Rosu or Valea Marului ( next stop ).

- Turnu Rosu is preferred by most , because its not that hard to find a way , which cannot be said about Valea Marului

- my favorite connection is this - from Arad ( to Arad i get from Prague by Panonia train ) at 23:55 to Sibiu cca 6:00 ( you can get some sleep ) , and from Sibiu cca 8:00 to Turnu Rosu 8:30 , so you can get quite far this day , and even at slowest possible pace you can get to the main ridge
