Situated in the west side of Southern Carpathians,
The Parang mountains are located in the south-western part of the Central-Meridional Carpathians. They are the tallest mountains from the local Parang-Cindrel mountain group and the second largest mountains in the Romanian Carpathians after the Fagaras mountains. They are situated between the Sureanu mountains (north), Latoritei mountains (north-east), Căpăţânii mountains (east), Valcanu mountains (west) and the Petrosani depression in the north-west.
These mountains are the perfect location to lose yourself in the misty landscape and mild springs, to step on the blossom field and feel you free. Villagers’ smile gives you a feeling of inner peace that makes you want to come back there. I’ll share with you some pictures: enjoy!
