They say about this place that only very few people know about it, but that's not true.

Banita Gorges - Banita (16 photos) 0 km away
The approximately 250 m long gorge, similar to the Corcoaia Gorge, is truly spectacular. According to assumptions, it was formed by the collapse of a cave passage ceiling, and then the erosion formed spectacular karst formations in the limestone.
Bolii Cave - Banita (20 photos) 0.68 km away

Natural bridge next to the Banita Stone Quarry (12 photos) 3.83 km away
Although the Banita Stone Bridge is not far from the road that passes through the village, it is located beyond the railway line, so its approach is a bit cumbersome. We can go around the railway line on Carierei Street, and then we have to walk a few meters from the stone quarry.

Hili cove iron path Turda Gorges 127.16 km away
While the first time I climbed this via ferrata in the morning, now I climbed it in the light of the setting sun. The red-dressed rocks created a special atmosphere, and I could admire the sunset from the top of the climbing route.

Siega via ferrata Silberkar Gorge, Ramsau am Dachstein 767.68 km away
The Siega via ferrata, categorized as a C/D level of difficulty, is perhaps the least interesting of the three via ferrata routes in the Silberkar Gorge (Silberkarklamm). This doesn't mean that it's not good, just that the other two are even better.
