INTRO
One of the two greatest bike climbs in Romania (the other is Transalpina North). There is a nice Top Gear article about the road at TopGear-Transfagarasanhighwayworldsbestroad.

Tunnels: There are 5 tunnels, so bring lights. Although, when we asked Anja her opinion, she wrote "No tunnels do not frighten me. I did not use a lamp. Tunnel on the top of a climb is narrow, only one car at once, like one way and then they stop and cars from opposite side... But lights are good so no problem only a lot of dust inside so you need to be fast🤣🤣🤣🤣."
