The Bucegi Range above is seen at dawn looking south from the Postavaru Cabin above the Poiana Brasov Alpine skiing area. Many mountain ranges along the 900 km long Carpathian Mountains spine offer year-round access for hiking, climbing, wildlife (bear, lynx, wolf, mountain goats). A special quality of Romanian mountains is the presence from late Spring to Fall of itinerant shepherds and their flocks in search of lush pasture land.
