The Snagov region (Romanian: Regiunea Snagov) is a region in southern Romania centered around Lake Snagov that includes the communes of Snagov, Gruiu and Ciolpani.[3][4] [5] The neighbouring commune of Balta Doamnei and the small village of Balta Neagră (part of the Nuci commune) are at times included due to the historical, geographical and ethnic connections that are apparent.[6]
The geographical limits of the region are roughly defined by the Ialomița river (or, alternatively, the Prahova river) in the north, the forests of Scroviștea to the west, and the Cociovaliștea and Vlăsia rivers in the south and east.[7] They are not borders, but rather natural boundaries created by the remnants of the rivers, lakes and forests of the Snagovian plain, that surround the population centers along the coast of Lake Snagov.[8]
The combined area of the communes of Snagov, Gruiu and Ciolpani is around 195.55 km² (75.50 sq mi.) As of 2021, the population of the region stands at 20,747 people.
