Very demanding climb/Spectacular descent

The Transalpina, also known as Drum național 67C (Romanian for "National Road 67C", DN67C for short), is a touristically important road in Romania. It crosses the Transylvanian Alps, connects the Gorj County in Little Wallachia (Oltenia) with the Alba County in Transylvania and reaches a height of 2132 m,[2] according to other information 2145 m.[3] Its summit height thus exceeds that of the Transfagarasan High Road (Drum național; DN 7C). The modern road, also known as Drumul Regal ("King's Road"), was opened in 1939 and expanded for strategic reasons during the Second World War. During the revolutionary period around 1989, the road was neglected. From 2009, it was partially asphalted and in 2010, a section was put back into operation. The asphalting was completed in 2012.[3] Currently (2016) the road is fully accessible with restrictions.

Vidra Lake is a reservoir in the Parâng mountain range on the Lotru River in Vâlcea County, southern Romania. The lake has an area of 12.40 km2 (4.79 sq mi) and a volume of 340×106 m3 (1.2×1010 cubic feet). The associated Lotru-Ciunget hydroelectric power station has a maximum output of 510 MW and uses a height difference of about 800 m (2,600 feet). The dam and hydroelectric power station were built between 1965 and 1972. It is the second largest hydroelectric power station in Romania after the Iron Gate I and II power stations.

Situated along the valley of one of the longest rivers in Romania, Olt, the area of Cozia National Park extends on over 17,000 hectares and includes Cozia Mountain, partially Capatanii, and Lotrului Mountains. With a maximum altitude of 1,668 meters, these mountains are not nearly as tall as the nearby Fagaras. But their abrupt slopes make hiking here an unexpectedly intense experience that can prove to be difficult during snowy winters.

It's definitely worth taking a break here. In addition to good food and souvenirs, you also have a beautiful view here. However, there is often a lot going on here, especially on weekends when the weather is nice.

Reservoir of the Alt River. At the end of the dam it is a great place to take a break. You can sit on the wall here and watch the birds on the lake.

Regardless of whether you come from Sebeș or from Novaci, you already have a few meters of altitude in your legs when you arrive here. It is definitely worth taking a break here and taking in this incredible view. By the way, there are a few snack bars where you can still eat solid food.
