Muntele Oslea, Nature reserve in Transylvania, Romania.

Muntele Oslea rises to 1946 meters in the Retezat-Godeanu Mountains, featuring a narrow alpine ridge with extensive karst formations spanning 300 meters in depth.

The mountain ridge marked the boundary between Romania and the Austro-Hungarian Empire until 1918, now separating the counties of Gorj and Hunedoara.

The mountain paths connect numerous traditional Romanian shepherd settlements, maintaining centuries-old practices of seasonal livestock movement through the Carpathians.

Winter expeditions require complete ski touring equipment including avalanche rescue kits, while summer hiking necessitates proper mountain gear and GPS navigation systems.

The mountain contains a geological structure similar to Piatra Craiului Ridge, with limestone formations creating specialized habitats for endemic plant species.

GPS coordinates: 45.22639,22.88972
