Abstract

ABSTRACT. The Bârgău Mountains are located in the northern group of the Eastern Carpathians and represent a territory with a vocation for practicing winter sports (especially cross-country skiing), but also for sports leisure (hiking, cross-country skiing, freeride). This is due to the snow potential of the mountainous area, especially above 1000 m, where the specific phenomena of winter favor the deposition of a thick layer of snow, which, however, fluctuates in duration and thickness depending on climatic variations affecting the region. The analysis of the snow potential was based on the observations made during 2018-2022, on winter phenomena and snow deposits, and the data obtained were correlated with the morphometric characteristics of the relief, finally establishing the optimal areas for certain sports and leisure activities.
