Vânătările Ponorului - Dâlbina waterfall - Huda lui Papară

A short, but consistent Sunday hike to Vânătările Ponorului in Trascău Mountains.
Panoramic view from the platou (793 m). Click for full-screen.
Descending to Dâlbina waterfall is very picturesque.


Dâlbina waterfall is situated right in the middle of the "V" shape made by the cliffs.
.... and after a few more steps we arrived to the waterfall, which is extremely breathtaking.

Dâlbina waterfall ~ 25 m high
This is a very interesting situation, because the water from the waterfall, at the base off the cliff
disappears and after almost a kilometer appears here ...

... at Huda lui Papară cave, with a 35 m entry and with the biggest bat population in Europe is really fascinating.
