Highlights

Wander in an underground gleaming gallery that looks like something straight out of a Sci-Fi movie to discover an ancient Transylvanian chronicle carved in salt. Chill out in a charming little mountain village. Walk along a wild gorge and quest a fortified cave.

Itinerary

  • Salina Turda

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Included
    You will descend into the underground where you'll completely be surrounded by salt. Walk on a man-made gallery, visit three mining chambers, learn about mining techniques and local urban legends. Chance to take a boat or a Ferris-wheel ride. The visit of the mine involves climbing and descending some stairs. In total there about 500 steps to go up and down, but most of them can be avoided by taking two different elevators (time & crowd permitting).
  • Cheile Turzii

    2 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Walk along a wild gorge for about 1.5 km. Admire the different vegetation and rock formations, as the gorge was declared a complex nature reserve. Quest a fortified cave before getting back the same way you came . For the bravest of you, chance to take a zip line ride close to the gorge.
  • Rimetea

    1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Admire the white ginger-bread-looking-like houses in the charming little village of Rimetea, while the guide tells you stories about the Szekler community and their heritage.
