One of Romania’s amazing natural wonders, Bâlea Lake is a spectacular, must-see landmark. The glacier lake has been carved 2,034 metres (6,673 feet) up into the rugged stones of the Făgăraș Mountains, named the ‘Transylvanian Alps’ by the French geographer Emmanuel de Martonne! Bâlea Lake is not only a place to do some sightseeing but also a great spot for hiking, ice climbing, cycling or even skiing. I visited in July and it was snow in the summer! If you came to Romania you have to visit!
