Contexte culturel
In Romanian folklore, the 'munte înalt' is often personified as a protector or a giant. It is a place where the earth meets the sky. Romanians love 'grătar' (BBQ) at the foot of a 'munte înalt'. It is a weekend tradition for many families in the summer. The high mountains of Transylvania (the Carpathians) are central to the region's identity and history as a natural fortress. The highest peak in Romania, Moldoveanu (2544m), is a source of national pride and a common goal for hikers.
