Tourist spots

 At the foot of Cindrel and Frumoasa you can visit the “Cindrel Natural Park”, the two crystalline glacial lakes Iezerul Mare and Iezerul Mic being hidden like pearls surrounded by mountain peonies, in two romantic valleys at the foot of Cindrel and Frumoasa.

  We propose a trip with a cart through the village and its surroundings: you will meet old churches, well-kept houses with wooden gates, shrines, the covered wooden bridge, the over 500-year-old fir tree (a natural monument, it is said that it takes 8 people to hug it), the imposing storage dam guarded by mountain peaks  “to Pisc” – where the Big River and the Small River meet, and if you continue your journey along the Big River, crossing Cheile Cibinului, you will reach the Paltinis resorts.

 In the first weekend of July, the people and the “Mountain Peony Festival” will give you an encounter with tradition.  The young men of the village, dressed in traditional clothing and riding on embellished horses, welcome the guests at the high wooden gate at the entrance to the village and lead them to the centre for the primary dance of young people of the village.  From noon on the stage is set up near the dam and folk songs and dances start, where you have the opportunity to taste the traditional dishes prepared by the villagers: cocolos with bellows cheese, mutton stew, veal cauldron, bread baked on the hearth and various pies.
