Natural bridge next to the Banita Stone Quarry - photos
Page no. 1, photos: 1-8, 12 photos in total. >>>
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.
The natural bridge next to the Banita Stone Quarry is located approximately 5 km from the Banita Gorge. From a distance, nearby, but even standing on it, it is not visible. It can only be recognized by descending into the creek bed.

Banita Gorges and Banita rock bridge 3.83 km away
They say about this place that only very few people know about it, but that's not true. In fact, most nature lovers have heard of it, seen pictures taken here, even if not everyone has been able to come here. Since it has been talked about everywhere, and it has been advertised, I have also been planning to come here for years.

On the second day of my weekend Retezat hike, I visited a sheepfold on the Lancita Ridge. To my great disappointment, they didn't make cheese or curd here. The owners sell the more special types of sheep and rams in the autumn.

Hias Klettersteig Silberkarklamm, Ramsau am Dachstein 763.65 km away
The Hias Klettersteig in the Silberkarklamm gorge is the first of the three via ferrata routes, and perhaps the easiest to complete. Two cable bridges and a few trickier sections make it interesting, but it is truly impressive due to the view of the narrow gorge.
