Pietrosu Peak, Mountain summit in Călimani Mountains, Romania

Pietrosu Peak reaches an elevation of 2,100 meters and features distinct rock formations across its crystalline structure within the Carpathian mountain range.

The mountain underwent two significant glaciation periods during the Late Quaternary, which created its current geological formations and deep valleys.

The mountain carries different names across languages, reflecting the multicultural heritage of the region, from Romanian Vârful Pietrosul Călimanilor to Hungarian Nagy-Köves.

Hikers can start their journey from Borsa, following marked trails that lead through various difficulty levels to reach the mountain's summit.

The peak ranks as the seventh most prominent mountain in Romania and maintains the highest position among all summits in Mureș County.

Elevation above the sea: 2,100 m
