A wild, scenic and historic canyon
The Turenilor Gorges, also known as the Turului Gorges or the Copandului Gorges, are located just 20 kilometres from Cluj-Napoca, between the communes of Tureni and Copăceni. Declared a nature reserve and archaeological park, the gorges invite you to discover a fascinating land, sculpted by time and the rushing waters of the Racilor Valley.
Huge cliff faces, lush vegetation and rich biodiversity
The steep walls, reaching heights of up to 150 metres, will win you over with their grandeur. Hidden caves, miniature waterfalls and rich vegetation with rare and endemic species create a unique landscape, perfect for hiking and nature adventures. The Tureni Gorge is a paradise for birdwatchers, home to an impressive variety of bird species.
Thrilling trail along the water
The route through the pier is marked with a blue dot and takes about 2-2.5 hours. There are two options: along the water, through the gorge, and on the ridge. The trail through the gorge is more difficult and requires appropriate equipment (harness, tarpaulin, helmet) and is recommended only for experienced hikers in good physical condition. The ridge trail is easier and offers spectacular panoramic views.
