Piatra Ciutei (near Lepșa) is a compact mountain lookout where Carpathian ridgelines stack into layered depth. Best light comes at sunrise and late golden hour; midday haze can flatten contrast. Reach it by car along DN2D, then short forest access—good shoes help. Weekday mornings feel quiet, ideal for clean compositions.
