Transfagarasan is the most famous mountain road in Europe. It is a great experience for drivers. If you don’t travel to Romania by car you may rent it and go to Transfagarasan . It is not easy to drive car up to 2000 m asl by extremely winding road. The condition of the road is very good. You don’t need a 4WD car to reach the top. Don’t be in a hurry, take your time and stop at every viewpoint to enjoy stunning views of Fagaras Mountain. Plan 1 day for extraordinary Transfagarasan experience
You have a very good chance to see a wild brown bear. We managed to stop a few meters from the bears three times. The animal was very close to the road.
The route is open for several months of the year, from May to September. Depending on the conditions, it can be opened later and closed earlier. In September 2021, the mountain slopes were covered with frost. An alternative or a supplement can be a ride on another equally fantastic road called Transalpina.
