Natural bridge next to the Banita Stone Quarry (12 photos) 27.56 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.
Banita Gorge - Banita (16 photos) 31.35 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.
