Romania Iezer lake at Pietrosu Rodnei
Iezer lake lies at about two thirds up to Pietrosu peak at Rodnei National Park. It is surrounded on three sides by steep mountains with a trail leading up to the peak. In July and August the Rhododendron and other wild flowers are blooming. We have also seen two families of alpine marmots on the way up.
Photography Tips
Travel light, there is a track and you will go uphill at least 8km's.
