    "Transalpina" road - Romania

    A new adventure of the White Wolves ...

    Transalpina road is the highest road in Romania and even the entire chain of the Carpathian Mountains, both in Romania and the neighbor countryes, reaching the maximum altitude at 2145 m.
    The road crosses Urdele Pass of Parang Mountins from N to S and is parallel to the Olt Valley and Jiu Valley, being placed between them.

    To reach Transalpina Road, me and the other "White Wolves", decided to follow some forest roads, one of them called "The Strategic Road".
    Although higher and most beautiful than the oldest "Transfagarasan Road", is less known because Transalpina, although it is classified national road, it was never paved until 2009.
    Maybe because it was just so hard to acces Transalpina helped to keep untouched wilderness and charm of it. It is one of the few roads in the country that can be reached by car ... and you'll be even above the clouds. And if you think not look at the pictures following ...
