Maramureş Mountains Natural Park

Maramureş Mountains Natural Park, Natural park in northern Maramureș County, Romania.

Maramureș Mountains Natural Park is a large protected area in northern Romania that covers mountainous terrain with many different plant and animal communities. The landscape includes forests, meadows, and rocky peaks that create diverse habitats throughout the region.

The park was created in 2005 to protect the mountainous landscapes and their natural character. The region had been shaped over centuries by people living and working in these mountains, leaving traces of their presence in the land.

The park's name comes from the Maramureș region, and its valleys are named for the rivers that cut them: Vaser, Ruscova, Frumușeaua, Bistra. In the Sâlhoi–Zâmbroslavele rocks, locals know a small plant as lingurea (Cochlearia pyrenaica var. borzaeana). The Tomnatec–Sehleanu meadow protects a stand of Narcissus radiiflorus growing at 1,600 m on the slope of Mount Tomnatec.

You can hike through the park on marked trails that start from different points in the mountains. Spring through fall offers the best conditions for walking, with stable weather and clear paths to follow.

The park's highest point is Farcău Peak at 1,957 m, on the northern border of Romania. On the saddle between Farcău and Mihăilecu lies Lake Vinderel, a glacial lake fed by its own spring and by rain and snowmelt. The park also holds the Tomnatec–Sehleanu narcissus meadow, where Narcissus radiiflorus grows at about 1,600 m.
