The highest road in Romania, riding the open ridge.
The DN67C Transalpina crosses the Parâng mountains over the Urdele Pass at 2,145 m, the highest road in Romania, older and wilder than the Transfăgărășan, running long and open along the ridgeline. Remote and exposed; watch for fog, livestock on the open road, and fast-falling mountain weather.
