Fortress of Ponor

Reviewed By MeA18 - Paris, France

We went up on a very rainy day, and there was no problem, just make sure you're adequately equipped, because the track is not so easy, although doable by everybody. It was the most wonderful landscape we had ever seen. We also went inside the cave with headlamps, which was unforgettable (we recommend to do it with experienced people and water boots). As the site has been kept as it is, in its most natural way, you won't find any restaurant/bar in the national park, so make sure you bring your own food and drinks.

It was good to be in such a beautiful place. Fresh air, amazing views. A little bit crowded, but it was ok. I recommend it for everybody who want to be in the middle of the nature.

Bridal Veil Falls

Reviewed By Dc3108 - Melbourne, Australia

We drive to the waterfall from Cluj through Huedin. The trip took approx 1.5 hours. The roads are excellent up to Huedin but from then on watch out for a few pot holes and oncoming traffic (the road narrows). The car park is 10 minutes walk from the waterfalls. The walk is an easy hike along a stream and trees covered in moss on one side and sheer cliffs on the other. A wooden platform allows you to cross the waterfall and take nice pictures. You can also walk a further 10 minutes and view the fall from the top but in the absence of a barrier you would need to watch young kids. A cross signifying someone who fell and died is a stark reminder. The falls were worth the 70km drive from Cluj especially if you stop at Huedin on the way home to see the gypsy palaces.

It is a very nice place where you can take very long walks, or you can work out, or relax in a hammock. It is a place full of positive energy.
