Busteni

The Bucegi Mountains define the setting of Bușteni — their abrupt eastern slopes rise above the Prahova Valley, concentrating the town’s homes, railway and main road along the river corridor. The resort lies on a traditional route between Wallachia and Transylvania, a position that long made this valley one of Romania’s principal mountain passages. Above town, the Heroes’ Cross on Caraiman Peak commemorates Romanian soldiers of the First World War, while Cantacuzino Castle recalls the early-20th-century summer culture of the valley. Trails and the cable-car route lead towards the Bucegi Plateau and the weathered Babele rock forms. Move on to other webcams in Prahova to compare mountain settings around Bușteni.
