Situated in the Diham Mountains, on the edge of a wide clearing beneath Măgura Cenușie, Cabana Diham serves as an important tourist base. It offers an excellent place to rest (with 87 accommodation spots) and is also a starting point for numerous hikes in the surrounding area or toward the northern cliffs of the Bucegi Mountains. Located at an altitude of 1,320 meters, the cabin beneath Măgura Cenușie was established in 1934, on the site of cattle stables built in 1906. The initiative to build a shelter came from the German Ski Club of Bucharest, which had been operating in the area since 1932 and needed a resting place for skiers.
Travelers who step through the doors of this cabin will be greeted by Mama Oara, the caretaker here for 50 years—a truly unforgettable character who is sure to leave a lasting impression.
