Bicaz-Chei Essentials

Bicaz-Chei serves as the gateway to the Bicaz Gorge-Hășmaș National Park, a region defined by massive limestone cliffs and the Bicaz River. This selection features the narrowest canyon sections, such as Hell’s Throat, alongside the 1,154-meter Piatra Altarului peak. The area offers technical climbing routes, the Astragalus via ferrata in the Șugău Gorges, and the secluded Bicăjel Gorge. The landscape is characterized by road tunnels cut directly into the rock and diverse alpine flora.
