Transfagarasan road is one of the best roads in the world and the awesome landscapes makes it unique.
The road climbs to 2.034 meters altitude. Built as a strategic military route , the 90 km of twist and turns run north to south across the tallest sections of the southern Carpathians , between the highest peak in the country , Moldoveanu , and the second highest , Negoiu . The road connects the historic regions of Transylvania and Wallachia , and the cities of Sibiu and Pitesti .
The road is usually closed from late October until late June because of snow. Depending on the weather , it may remain open until as late as November . It may also be closed , at times , because of weather conditions (it occasionally snows even in August).
