SAINT ANNE LAKE

Lake Sfânta Ana  meaning "Saint Anne Lake" in both languages) is the only crater lake in Romania located in the volcanic crater named "Puciosul" (Büdös-hegy or Stinky Mountain) of the Eastern Carpathians, near Tușnad in the Natural Reserve of Mohoș, Harghita County, Romania.

 Palynology studies concluded that the history of Lake Saint Anne began about 9,800-8,800 years ago, at the stage of peat bog and shallow lake. It has an oval form and an area of 220,000 m². According to measurements made in 2005, the maximum depth of the lake is 6.4 m and the sediment thickness is about 4 m. 
 The lake is supplied exclusively from precipitations, therefore the degree of mineralization of the water is very low. The water purity approaches of that of distilled water, with only 0.0029 ml mineral.
 In winter, the lake is covered with a layer of ice of up to 1 m. Near the lake there is a Roman Catholic chapel dedicated to Saint Anne.

VIDRARU LAKE

Lake Vidraru  is an artificial lake in Romania. It was created in 1965 by the construction of the Vidraru Dam on the Argeș River.
It lies in the shadow of the Făgăraș Mountains. A village lies submerged at the bottom of this lake.

Vidraru Lake is a lake, with 465 million cubic metres of water, with a length of 10.3 km and a width of 2.2 km, thus accumulating a total area of 870 hectares and maximum depth of 155 metres. Underground power station is situated in massive Cetatuia to a depth of 104 metres and can provide annual energy production of 400 GWh.

Vidraru Lake is a reservoir lake created in 1965 on the Arges River for electricity production.
Situated between the mountains and the Massif Ghitu brow, lake gathers the waters of rivers Capra, Buda and several direct tributaries (River Lady, and Valsan Cernatul, topology, Valea lui Stan and clear), with a total flow of about 5.5 m3 / s .
The total area of the lake is 893 ha, length of 10.3 kilometers, maximum width of 2.2 km in the Wolf Valley – mantis and a circumference of 28 km. Maximum water depth is 155 m high curved dam near 166 m with a length of 307 metres crown. Water volume is 465 million m³. The normal retention is 830.00 metres above sea level (mdM).

Vidraru dam construction took five years and a half starting in 1960 . For this achievement, it took 42 km of underground tunnels were excavated 1.768 million m3 of rock, of which about 1 million underground bands have 930,000 m3 of concrete of which 400,000 m3 underground and also were installed 6300 tonnes of electromechanical equipment.

On completion it was located, measured in height, approximately the 8th place in Europe and ranked 20th in the world.
On Lake Vidraru, people can practice the extreme sport of bungee jumping
In an average hydrological year, Vidraru hydroelectric power plant located underground, can produce approximately 400 GWh of electricity. It has an installed capacity of 220 MW.

The town of Curtea de Arges coming to DN1 (Cartisoara village, SB), the road passing through hydropower plant to Vidraru the dam, followed by right lake is spectacular Vidraru Transfagarasan (DN7C).

Mount Plesa was famous statue of Prometheus by lightning in his hand, a symbol of electricity. Only a few hundred metres of the dam tourists can go to the House Argeseana “and the pier where the practice of leisure boat racing.
