Rodna Mountains (Munţii Rodnei) are a subdivision of the Eastern Carpathians in Northern Romania. The two highest points are Pietrosul Rodnei and Ineu peaks, with 2,303 and 2,279 meters respectively. The mountains are most suited for hiking in summer and skiing in winter, and are especially famous for having snow late into the summer months (skiing is possible well into June, sometimes even July).
 
The massif has some caves, notable among them being "Izvorul Tăuşoarelor", the deepest cave in Romania, going about 479 metres beneath the surface and "Jgheabul lui Zalion", 242 metres deep.
 
The entire Rodna Mountain is included in the Rodna National Park and Biosphere Reserve. This is a 567 sq km reservation in Eastern Carpahians with brown bears, lynx, gray wolves, black grousecapercailles and eagles.
 
The Maramures Mountains Fauna is characteristic to the one in the East Carpathians with great biodiversity thanks to the existing ecologic factors. The various biodiversity is enriched by different endemic species that are rare in Romania or Europe.
