Ronki-szoros, Nature reserve in northern Alba County, Romania
The Runcului Gorges extend over 20 hectares, featuring limestone cliffs, peaks, and towers with vertical drops reaching 450 meters in height.
The Romanian government established legal protection for the Runcului Gorges through Law No. 5 on March 6, 2000, classifying it as a category IV IUCN mixed nature reserve.
The surrounding villages maintain traditional agricultural practices, utilizing the reserve's meadows and pastures while preserving the natural landscape of the Trascau Mountains.
Visitors can reach the gorges via National Road DN75 from Turda to Campeni, followed by a 5-kilometer journey north on a communal road along Ocolis Valley.
The gorge formation represents a morphological breakthrough in the Vulturese limestone ridge, stretching just over 1 kilometer through the eastern part of the Mare Mountain.
