Cheile Bicazului - Bicaz Canyon







Location: Neamţ/Harghita county, south of Mountain Fountain lake(which is gorgeous) and close to the Red Lake. If you want to have a close look of the Canyon you must climb on the tracks heading between the gorges, the tracks are well made, having hand rail in some spots, where going up might be dangerous. The Canyon is really impressive, and you may climb on those outstanding rocks if you are brave enough:the tallest cliff has a cross standing on the highest altitude of the entire gorge, touch it if you can :).
It's fauna and vegetation is famous in the country: here you can find the rare lion's foot flower
and the raven, the laughter and the brown bear, which are protected species.
Many tracks start from the Holiday Resort Red Lake and come out inside the Canyon, but they can be traveled in both directions. Parking inside the Canyon is difficult, so it's best to leave the car at the Red Lake and come by foot( 1 km ). There is a souvenir shop at the southern edge, if you want to have some memories from this wonderful place.
The trip at the base of Suhardul Mic is a great
one, though we didn't reach the end of it because it was late. Look at the wooden map situated in the Holiday Resort Red Lake to see all the tracks and their wonderful attractions.
