The proximity to Bucharest - just over 10 km - fully contributes to the popularity of the place, both among groups of friends and among families with children, couples, or just joggers.
Although it has nothing organized, apart from a few barbecue places, Pustnicu Forest is suitable for walks on the slightly wild path along Pasărea Lake, for trail running, or even for bike rides. For children, the wilderness of the place can be good to explore. With a little luck, you might find a picnic spot on an abandoned pontoon or in a window that opens onto the lake in the forest foliage.
Pasărea Monastery is beautifully situated on the other bank. The lakeside restaurant is in high demand on weekends, and opinions on services, food, and prices are divided.
