There is a complex preserve aiming at protecting alpine landscape, flora and fauna represented by numerous rare species like edelweiss, ure ox, capercaillie, bear, lynx, wolf, Carpathians stag. There are geological reserves displaying strange volcanic-Karst phenomena: The Twelve Apostles, which are high rocks of 8-12 m, a real gallery of figures and the Repedea Valley, stretching on 7 km among the volcanic formations of the Calimani Mountains, its surface being scattered with impressive rocks of various shapes ("mushrooms", "apostles", "pillars") giving the place a unique charm. |
