Hangu - Lake Izvorul Muntelui Trail
Lake in Neamț county
What it feels like
Cool air at altitude, water that mirrors the sky, the smell of pine on the shore. The kind of stillness that resets you.
Hangu, a village partly submerged when Lake Bicaz was built, with a church beneath the water that becomes visible in times of drought, is a place with a sad yet fascinating story. Boat trips on the lake and views of the Ceahlău Mountains make Hangu a moving stop for visitors.
Best time to visit
June through September. Higher-altitude lakes may freeze or be inaccessible in winter.
