On the road

The Transfăgărăşan Road, Romania.

Info from Wikipedia
Built as a strategic military route, The Transfăgărăşan or DN7C is the highest and most dramatic paved road in Romania. It runs North to South across the tallest sections of the Carpathian Mountains, between the highest peak in the country, Moldoveanu, and the second highest, Negoiu. The road connects the historic regions of Transylvania and Wallachia, and the cities of Sibiu and Piteşti.
The road climbs to 2,034 meters altitude. The road is usually closed from late October until late June because of snow.
