Fun day! Loved climbing...
Fun day! Loved climbing to the top to see Poenari Castle up close. The 1480 steps were worth climbing! The view was stunning. George, our guide, and Vlad, our driver, were great. George was very knowledgeable, and I am convinced Vlad was a NASCAR driver in a previous life. Along the way, we saw one bear and got to pet two donkeys. Of course, the lake, dam, and T Highway were also very nice. It was a very long day, but worth it.

MUST DO!! The famous Top Gear road- named the best in the world.
AMAZING DAY! This is why I came to Romania, to visit this road! Sebastian, our guide/driver was amazing, funny, informative and very great to spend the day with. We got to see 7 bears up close from the van, just an amazing day- couldn't ask for anything more!

Top trip
It was a fantastic day. Pick up in Bucharest, then off to the mountains. We had a short comfort break to grab some breakfast and coffee then we went along the Top Gear road up to the lake. Unfortunately it was foggy, but the food in the tent was amazing. On the way up and down we saw 6 bears. A photostop and pause at the dam before heading back. 12 hour trip and worth every penny.

How to get there
When to visit

It takes about 2.5 hours to drive the road, but leave plenty of time to stop and take photos, or in case you get stuck behind flocks of sheep and local herders, who share the road with regular traffic.
A restaurant and chalet accommodations are available at Balea Lake.
It can be chilly in the mountains, even in summer, so bring warm clothing in case you want to get out and take photos.
