Fagaras Mountain - even if we need a bit longer transfer, for a day hike we usually recommend to access the mountain via the Transfagarasan Highway, taking us to Balea Lake at 2035m high. From the glacier lake there are a few good options for day hikes around the lake with stunning views, or even a bit along the main ridge with optional detour to a peak over 2500m. On clear day we can spot in a distance the Moldoveanu Peak, as the roof of Romania at 2544m.

Also we can admire the main ridge of Fagaras, streching continuously for over 60km along south Transylvanian border

This was a fun challenging hike with a little rock scrambling at the top. Our guide, Narcis, was knowledgeable about the mountains and Romania. He was very kind and patient.
