Cavnic

Cavnic sits in the valley of the Cavnic River in Romania’s Maramureș region, where the Gutâi Mountains rise around a town long associated with mining. Gold, silver, lead and zinc were extracted from the surrounding hills for centuries, leaving an industrial heritage that sets Cavnic apart from many settlements in northern Romania. The town is also known as a winter-sports destination, while the wider Maramureș region is recognised for its wooden churches and enduring rural traditions. Forested slopes and mountain roads give the area a distinctly upland character throughout the year. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Maramureș.
