The Bicaz Gorge (Romanian: Cheile Bicazului, Hungarian: Békás-szoros) is a gorge in Romania, located in the north-east part of the country, in Neamț and Harghita counties; it is part of the Cheile Bicazului-Hășmaș National Park.[1]

The gorge was excised by the waters of the river Bicaz and it serves as a passageway between the Romanian provinces of Moldova and Transylvania.

It is a noted location to see the wallcreeper, an uncommon cliff-dwelling bird.

The road along the 8 kilometres of ravines, often in serpentines with rock on one side and a sheer drop on the other, is one of the most spectacular drives in the country. Also within the gorge is Lacul Roșu (the Red Lake), with its traditional cabins, hotels, and its famous lake (situated at 980m altitude) caused by a landslide in the 19th century.

Thank you for your video, no wonder you only aimed the camera upwards. Otherwise we would see the dreadful and ugly stalls along the roadside selling rubbish. Everywhere there are beautiful landscapes bespoiled by humans selling trash. It's a shame that the local Govt agency allows this. Make them move out to the area outside the gorge - let us just see the beauty of this place.
