Turda Gorge

Turda Gorge, called Cheile Turzii in Romanian and Tordai-hasadék in Hungarian, is a natural reserve about 6 kilometers west of Turda and 15 kilometers southeast of Cluj-Napoca in Transylvania, Romania. It was carved by the erosion of the mountain's Jurassic limestone and is regarded as one of Romania's richest and most scenic karst landscapes, running 2,900 meters long with walls up to 300 meters high across a 324 hectare reserve. The gorge shelters more than 1,000 plant and animal species, some rare or endangered, and contains around 60 known caves, making it a major destination for rock climbing; the site has been inhabited since Neolithic times.
