Ceahlău - Dochia and Panaghia
Carpathian peak in Neamț county
What it feels like
Wind at altitude, panoramic views, the air thin and clean. The bigger sky above the tree line.
The Ceahlău Massif (1,907 m), the Holy Mountain of Moldavia, fascinates with the Dochia, Panaghia and Toaca rock formations. The legend of Dochia turned to stone and the pilgrimage on the Feast of the Transfiguration (6 August) give Ceahlău deep spiritual significance.
