Fairy Cliff (Peretele Zanelor) via ferrata route - Vadu Crisului 39.94 km away
In Vadu Crisului, in the Padurea Craiului Mountains, on the right bank of the Crisul Repede, you can find the newest, in chronological order (2015) the fifth Transylvanian, new type of via ferrata route. I will not count here the traditional iron paths, the high-mountain hiking trails, partly secured with iron cables, or the rock canyons with iron ladders and footbridges.

Vadu Crisului cave 40.54 km away
The Vadu Crisului Cave, with a total length of over 1000 meters, is located in the picturesque gorge of Crisul Repede creek. It consists of a gently meandering, long passage that features an active, stream level next to an upper, fossil level in its first section.

Roman Baths (Baile Romane) Cetea, Trascau Mountains 152.39 km away
Among the valleys of the Trascau Mountains, the Cetea Gorge best deserves the name of a crevice valley. Here, the waters of the Cetea Stream cut through the Mariuta limestone cliff, flowing through a narrow crevice that is only about 1-2 meters wide.

Small Via ferrata Rasnoavei Gorge 317.76 km away
In the past few days, it has snowed, so I climbed the two climbing routes in the Rasnoavei Gorge under winter conditions. While the lower part of the challenging Big via ferrata was dry, the upper section had patches of snow and icicles.
