If you're looking for an adrenaline-pumping experience that offers breathtaking viewpoints and the opportunity to capture envy-inducing Instagram photos, look no further. Just 30 km away from Cluj-Napoca, in the heart of Transylvania, lies a hidden gem that will leave you in awe - the via ferrata from Cheile Turzii, also known as Turda Gorges.
Prepare to be mesmerized by the sheer beauty of this natural wonder as you embark on an unforgettable journey. You'll start your ascent from the river level, gradually making your way up the gorges, surrounded by towering cliffs and lush vegetation.
But the real highlight of the adventure awaits you at the "Grota lui Hili", a vertical cave that will leave you speechless. As you navigate through this awe-inspiring natural wonder, you'll feel the thrill of conquering the rugged terrain, surrounded by the stunning Transylvanian landscape. The views from the top are nothing short of spectacular, offering panoramic vistas that will take your breath away.

And fear not, for the descent is just as exhilarating as the climb. The via ferrata is a one-way trail, which means you'll be rewarded with a hike along a scenic trail as you make your way back down, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the unspoiled beauty of this enchanting region.
So, if you're a sporty tourist seeking an unforgettable adventure, the via ferrata from Cheile Turzii is an absolute must-visit. Get ready to experience the thrill of climbing amidst awe-inspiring natural beauty and create memories that will last a lifetime.
