Very good vantage point on the curves of the impressive pass road down. This road is considered to be one of the most beautiful pass roads in the world and is very impressive, open from May to October.

If you like pass roads, you will love this one. Great view. In winter a cable car goes up.

The best view of the pass road is from the glass dome at Lake Balea. The entrance fee is 5 lei. However, you can also enjoy the same view from the back of the glass dome without paying an entrance fee.
