Left for many years in degradation, the pavement disappeared over time, giving the opportunity for some incredible off road motorcycle riding until 2010 if the construction work that begun on your way interfered using the traveling plans in the motocross motorcycle enthusiasts.
Today the building work for the road is actually finished and also the official reopening from the authorities was made come july 1st (unofficially the street continues to be enjoyed a long time before this by many adventurous riders). The road is currently 90% paved and stands to be a dream motorcycle route for every single rider. Beginning with Sebes approximately Novaci, Transalpina covers over 100 kilometers of hairpin curves, after each, the scenery unfolds itself offering incredible views over the mountains. The path is perfectly built, want it was made for use as a race track to the clouds and can be explored within 3 hours riding. The paving on the road didn't spoil the off-road appetite a lot of, since across the area you may still find a good amount of tracks to become explored.
