From km 66 (187 m above sea level, 0.7% slope) a new stretch begins with intensive climbing and descents and after leaving Adamclisi (km 75.3, 156 meters above sea level, -1% slope), the route remains relatively flat, with not very high height differences. From km 105.6 (122 m, -2.1% slope) the route descends to Murfatlar crossing the Danube – Black Sea canal (km 117.1, 16 m above sea level, -5.3% slope).
