Tips
The lake lies behind Cabana Bolboci, on the Transbucegi road (DJ 713) from Sinaia, about an hour’s drive past Cabana Dichiu. This is a forest road, which is rarely busy but can have ice, and parts close under snow. There are guesthouses and camping areas around Padina and Peștera nearby, and the Ialomița cave is close by.
Walkers can come down from Șaua Tătaru, though that route is impassable in winter.
