'''DN7''' ({{langx|ro|Drumul Național 7}}) is a national road in [[Romania]], which links [[Bucharest]] with the [[Banat]] region, in western Romania. It is further to the eastern European capitals [[Budapest]] and [[Belgrade]] via the border with [[Hungary]] at [[Nădlac]]. It is a high-traffic road and the preferred route for trucks. Near [[Râmnicu Vâlcea]], the road crosses the Southern [[Carpathian Mountains|Carpathians]] along the [[Olt (river)|Olt River]], through the [[Olt (river)|Valea Oltului]] touristic region.<ref>{{cite web|title=Harta drumurilor nationale din Romania|url=http://www.e-transport.ro/Galerie_foto-HARTI_RUTIERE-245-52-2469.html|publisher=e-Transport.ro|access-date=30 August 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121210042731/http://www.e-transport.ro/Galerie_foto-HARTI_RUTIERE-245-52-2469.html|archive-date=10 December 2012}}</ref>

Municipalities crossed by the road include [[Bucharest]], [[Pitești]], [[Râmnicu Vâlcea]], [[Sibiu]], [[Sebeș]], [[Deva, Romania|Deva]], and [[Arad, Romania|Arad]], ending at the town of [[Nădlac]]. Between Tălmaciu and Sebeș, the national road and [[DN1]] intersect.

The national road DN7 has two ramifications in [[Arad County]]. The first one is DN7B, which connects the national road to [[Pecica|Turnu]], where there is another border crossing with Hungary, whereas DN7G serves as the link between the road at Nădlac and the [[A1 motorway (Romania)|A1 motorway]] near the Nădlac II–Csanádpalota border crossing.

Most of the traffic formerly carried by the national road between [[Bucharest]] – [[Pitești]] and [[Sibiu]] – [[Nădlac]] now takes the A1 motorway, which will also carry most traffic between Pitești and Sibiu upon its completion.
