Getting there

Public Transport

From the city center (Piața Unirii), take bus number 30 from the bus station near the Unirii Square (Autogara Fany). The bus ride to the Lake Tarnița stop takes approximately 30-40 minutes. Make sure to get off at the 'Lacul Tarnița' bus stop. From the bus stop, walk approximately 10 minutes along the path leading towards the lake.

If you prefer cycling, rent a bike from one of the local rental shops in the city center.

The route to Lake Tarnița is approximately 20 kilometers and takes about 1-1.5 hours depending on your cycling speed. Follow the main road and enjoy the scenic views along the way.
