The Seven Ladders Canyon, Mountain canyon in Piatra Mare massif, Romania
The Seven Ladders Canyon is a mountain gorge carved through limestone rock with seven cascading waterfalls inside. Metal stairs and platforms connect these falls and create a walkway for visitors to move through the narrow passage.
The canyon was shaped by water erosion over millions of years and only opened to visitors in recent decades. Metal stairs were installed to give people a safe way to experience this natural formation.
The place is known among local hikers and nature enthusiasts who frequent it during warmer months. The walkways allow visitors to move through the canyon while staying close to the flowing water.
Wear sturdy shoes since the stairs can become wet and slippery from the water spray. Plan your visit for drier months when water levels are lower and the steps are safer to walk on.
At certain points, visitors can choose an alternative route using a cable system that crosses above the canyon. This system appeals to those seeking a different perspective and a bit more adrenaline during their visit.
