Capul Doloșman, Nature reserve in Dobrogea, Romania.

The 125-hectare reserve features limestone cliffs rising 20 meters above Lake Razim, providing habitats for numerous migratory bird species.

The protected area, established in 2000, contains ruins of the ancient Greek city Orgame, mentioned by Herodotus as Orgamon on the western shore of Pontus Euxinus.

Archaeological excavations at Cape Dolosman reveal traces of settlements from the Bronze Age and early Iron Age, indicating continuous human presence through different civilizations.

Access to the reserve is through county road DJ229P from Jurilovca village, with parking facilities available 1.5 kilometers from the ancient fortress site.

The geological formation combines horizontal Sarmatian limestone layers covered with Quaternary loess, formed through natural processes over two million years.
