The Nera Gorges, between ȘopotuNou and SascaMonatană, are the longest in Mountainous Banat (22 km). They are unique in the country what regards their beauty and magnificence,having a close connection between the rock, the vegetation and the water throughout their journey (quite difficult to cross). The most spectacular karstic shapes on the gorges are the three cascades in tuff limestone – the Beuşniţa Falls – and the two natural lakes: the Bei’s Eye and the Devil’s Lake.


The Bigar Reservation includes the Minis Gorges, with a length of 14 km, where – at the parallel of 45⁰ East – you can see: Bigar Cave, Bigar Spring and Bigar Waterfall. Also on these keys are the Lion’s Rock, the Bones Cave and the Adam Neamţu’s Caves. Şuşara Gorges and Ciclova Valley- Ilidia are of a particular charm.
