Hello,

Summer time (period of time ~15 June - ~15 November) : Until ~15 June the Transfagarasan road is closed by car. After ~15 June we can visit together this amazing place by car.

Winter time : Luckily, you can visit it by cable-car until then, during winter time. So, first we will go by car until Balea Cascada. After that we will use a cable-car to go to Balea Lake.

Transfagarasan Highway - rated by Top Gear as the most spectacular road in the world, the Transfagarasan impresses with its extraordinary scenery, the number of serpentines and the height at which it was built, the Fagaras mountains being the highest in Romania; thus, the Transfagarasan reaches altitudes up to 2042 metres at Lake Balea where it starts its descent to Cartisoara village; here, on a 30 km stretch we can enjoy the sight of the road in all its splendour.

Lake Balea - a glacier lake formed in a cirque (a depression surrounded by high mountains) at an altitude of 2040 metres; it lies on an area of 4,6 hectares (the length of the lake is 360 metres) and its depth is of approximately 11 metres.

Enjoy with us this amazing place!
