Transfagarasan on two wheels

The Transfagarasan mountain road or national road 7C is one of the most spectacular roads in the world. It is 90 km (56 miles) long and is located in Romania. It runs trough the Fagaras mountains (trans + Fagaras), a part of the Transsylvanian Alps. The road connects Transsylvania with Muntenia. The Transfagarasan starts at Bascov, near Piteçti. It follows the valley of the river Argea and after mounting to the highest point, it descends to Cartisoara in the Olt valley, where the road ends.

    The view is simply amazing and you have lots of things to see.

My favorite part is on the top off the transfagarasan , the food section :P

That's romanian food "porn" :)) c
At this point the road splits up. One follows the left side of the lake, the other the right side. You should take the right one, it's in far better condition then the left one and it's 3km/2miles longer. Both roads meet at the northern side of the lake.

While descending, views of rocks, jagged edges and meadows are replaced with dense pine forests. Eventually you'll end up in Cartisoara, where you can visit the Cistercian monastery. The road ends a few miles further North. If you are on vacation in Romania between June and September, the Transfagarasan road is an amazing and unforgettable driving experience for drivers and bikers.
