    Hiking

    The red lake is used as a recreational area and gladly used as a rest stop on the long journey.

    Here you can go by boat to the lake, buy food, souvenirs or just stretch your legs in beautiful nature.

    Hiking

    The iron-containing clay colors the lake sometimes more, sometimes less reddish. In any case, that gave him his name.
    This place was a real tourist magnet and it seemed obligatory to take a boat trip here. On the hiking trail around the lake you only meet a few local anglers.

    Cycling

    Lacul Roșu is a popular tourist destination. If you come by here by bike, it's worth making a short stop to eat or have a cold refreshing drink. There are enough possibilities to do so. If you want to stay a little longer, you can also rent a boat and paddle a bit on the lake.
