One last summer trip






It's raining and very cold today- our strange summer has changed faces again. It looks and feels like late October. I'm offering you a last summer trip, from a lake to another.
The first one, Vidraru, is one of the largest artificial lakes in our country (more than 28 km around), while the second is a glacier lake at 0ver 200 m of altitude.
To go from one to another you have to drive along the highest and most spectacular paved road in Romania, a strategic route crossing our tallest mountains to connect Transylvania and Wallachia. If you go beyond the glacier lake down in the valley, there is a beautiful waterfall, but we did not get as far as that- not now. We did some other time, by bike- it was pure horror for me- but that's another story.
I hope you enjoy the trip!
