Saca Mare Peak - Gurghiu Mountains

Saca Mare Peak is the highest peak in Gurghiu Mountains, with an altitude of 1777 m, located in the middle of the Saca Reserve. It is a favourite destination for many mountaineers, offering spectacular scenery, especially in winter, when it can be covered by ski touring or snowshoeing. It can be accessed on foot or by motorised vehicles, both from the resort of Sovata, in the direction of the ski slope, and from the Bucin Pass, mostly on forest roads. Close to the peak there is a well-maintained refuge, run by the Mureș Mountain Rescue team.
