Ciumârna Pass
Pasul Ciumârna
Mountain pass between Moldovița and Sucevița with winding roads and views over the Bukovina highlands.
At about 1,100 metres above sea level, the pass is the route connecting the monasteries of Moldovița and Sucevița. A Road Builders' Monument, honouring the workers who built the road, stands at the summit. A nearby lookout offers views over the rolling Obcina ridges and scattered wooden villages. The road has many bends, and the autumn foliage is spectacular. Locals often sell blueberries and honey by the roadside. It is well worth stopping when driving between the two monasteries.
