Galbina-szirt, Nature reserve in Bihor County, Romania.

The protected area of Pietrele Galbenei spans 6.30 hectares and features limestone cliffs rising over 200 meters above the surrounding beech forest.

The area received official protection status through National Law No. 5 on March 6, 2000, establishing it as a Natural Monument within IUCN Category III.

The natural reserve exists within the traditional landscape of northwestern Transylvania, where local communities maintain connections to historical practices and customs.

Visitors can access multiple marked trails through the virgin forest, leading to viewpoints overlooking the Barsa depression and surrounding mountain peaks.

The southern slopes contain a network of canyons and waterfalls formed by torrents, particularly in the Groapa Ruginoasa area of Mount Tapu.
