The Sub Carpathians of Curvature, Ciucaș,/Curvature Carpathians (Romanian: Carpații de Curbură, Hungarian: KĆ”rpĆ”tkanyar), are located between the Trotuș and Slănic rivers in Romania. They are a range of high hills (800ā€“900 m), with knolls and parallel ridges (Măgura Odobești), which separate two geological depressions.

The Sub Carpathians are one of the three traditional classifications of the Eastern Carpathians in Romania:

  • In the south, the Curvature Carpathians (Munții Carpați de Curbură).
