Hiking on Asau Peak near Damuc, Neamt County

Back to the collection

The starting point of this hiking route is in Damuc Commune, at the stone church in Huisurez Village. It’s best to leave your car at the school in Damuc, which will also be the finishing point of the route. From there you go on foot on the communal road, until on your left you see a stone church located on a hill.

From here you’ll have to seek an access point to the hill from your left. The first part of the route will challenge your conditioning. To reach Asau Peak will require climbing roughly 2 hours.

Sometimes the slope becomes abrupt but each step carries you higher and higher, above the entire valley. The view becomes spectacular: mountains that surround the valley are overwhelming. The stone church is now a small white dot at the base of the mountain. While we continue to go up, we come across haystacks in the middle of green planes.

Once we are on top, at more than 1300 m, in front of our eyes we see the whole spectacle of nature: Cheile Bicazului – Hasmasu Park, Ceahlau Mountain, Heghes Peak, Ivanes Peak, Hasmasul Mare Peak, Suhard, Munticelu, the stone Piatra Singuratica, just to name a few.
