The road has an interesting history, being built in the 70s at the orders of the communist leader who wanted to have an extra escape route in case of Soviet invasion.

For example, at 2034 meters, we arrive at Balea Lake, having previously admired the Balea Waterfall. The place is filled with merchants selling foods, drinks and souvenirs. The landscape is absolutely amazing. It really feels like heaven! Then, if you’re curious to discover more and time allows us, there is an optional free of charge trip available to either Balea waterfall (this hike will take up to an hour, it’s easy but requires hiking boots) or, we can take a delightful lunch (meal not included) in a farm to table restaurant, tasting local organic products, fresh fish and Romania drinks.
