The road to the lake is 60.3 km (37.46 miles) long, running west-east from Transalpina Road (DN67C) to Sadu.

Can I drive my vehicle to Negovanu Lake?

Located within the Parcul Natural Cindrel, on the east end of the Mărginimea Sibiului area, this is a forest road that crosses the mountains and is not shown on regular maps. The road is worse than it looks in the photos, so attempting it in anything but a High-Clearance vehicle is a recipe for disaster. The road doesn't have any signposts, and it's very hard to keep the right track because there are many intersections out there. The road crosses some of the poorest villages of Romania.
