The Dam from Bicaz and the artificial Lake Izvorul Muntelui.

Bicaz, locality situated at 25 km from Piatra Neamţ, at Ceahlău Mountains foot, has registered in the birth document the year 1950, when it became a town. Near by it has been started the construction of a great hydroelectric station.

Really big, having 127 meters, when it was built there were needed more than 170 000 cubic meters of rock for its excavation. The dam made possible the creation of the biggest artificial lake, between the mountains, from Europe - Izvorul Muntelui Lake (35 km length on a 33 square km surface).

The tourist port, from where lots of boats, for recreation walks leave, the tourists stops from the area and near The Mountain’s River (797 metres high), transformed the entire place in a centre of great tourist civilization.
