Your questions about Durău, answered
How high is Durău?
The lifts run from 2,625ft at the base to 4,921ft at the top, a vertical of 2,297ft. Of the 15 resorts we track in Romania, that is the 11th highest, with the 7th biggest vertical.
The base is below 3,281ft, so the lowest runs are the first to suffer in a mild spell; the upper mountain is the safer bet early and late in the season.
Is Durău good for beginners or experts?
The trails at Durău split 35% beginner, 50% intermediate and 15% advanced, against an average of 37% beginner and 17% advanced across the resorts we track in Romania.
On those numbers it suits beginners and intermediates.
