We will start today's trip with a special place, something a little different than the places I showed you lately. The gem you see in the picture above is called The Red Ravine, also known as The Little Canyon from Romania, which is hidden in a place close to Sebeş, Alba County, Romania. 📍
How this place appeared? ✴️
The Red Ravine appeared after a crash of soils which left behind nothing else but a beautiful canyon which can be compared with The Grand Canyon from SUA. The interesting colour of this little canyon is created by its structure - red clays.
Sounds familiar? A while ago I've written an article about The Rusty Pit which also have red clays in its composition. 🎴
Both The Red Ravine and The Rusty Pit are a treasure for Romania offering some special effects when it's raining being seen as little bloody rivers flowing on the rocks. In plus, a torrential rain can change the dimension and the aspect of the styled pyramids from The Red Ravine. 👀
The way to The Red Ravine? 🐾
You can get close enough to this place by driving the car so it's not really hard to get to see them, but I would suggest you to also take the scenic route through the nature up to the bloody rocks. ☘️
We will begin our little adventure with a walk of about 10mins into the forest and then you literally have to climb the valley so you can reach The Rusty Pit.
The beautiful canyon requests a lot of effort from the tourists as mounting the valley it sure is not easy, the area being very inclined with a high risk of slipping in every moment. 🌄
Ok, how we return now? 🔙
Well, we can either descend the valley or we can find other route. Personally I would suggest you to go down to the forest and then take a walk on the corridors dug by the water rather than following the same path we used when we came here. (It's very RISKY!!) ⚠️
I know I promised to @velveteendream53 that I will talk about this place a while ago, I'm sorry it took so long and I hope you enjoyed the pics. ❤️
As always I hope that I impressed you with another place that we discovered together in today's trip and NEVER stop exploring!
The nature has so many treasures to be discovered. 😍

The first time I was there I was taking a 3 day trip. This wasn't in our trip and when I saw it on my way to Alba Iulia from the highway nearby I found the nearest exit and navigated visually. You can imagine I couldn't get there due to the highway always being in the way of my route. Eventually I started Google Maps and it gave us a quick route. Don't rely on Google Maps since he think there is a road UNDER the highway, which is not. We got to a ditch and scared a couple of lovers in an old car.
Then we abandoned it and returned at the end of the 3 days, the Waze GPS took us under a highway bridge but then it took us to the edge of the forest. Sadly the field nearby was freshly plowed so we had to follow the tree line forest road which took us through 2 irrigation ditches. Hit everything under the car every single time, feared water coming in and even managed to get suspended once. Finally used all of my offroad technique ( I don't drive an offroader :) ) and managed to get there in the big parking lot, next to the military shooting range. Totally worth it :)
The rest is like you said. Steep incline and descended through the forest.
Ouch! Now that's what I call an adventure, haha :D
So close and still so far away... Haven't been there yet, though it's close to me. :D
Really? Such a shame! haha
You really have to visit this ASAP, you will make pure art with the pictures you are taking :D
Yeah, I know. I'm dreaming about (and planning) a trip to Patagonia next winter, but never been to Rapa Rosie, though I've passed it dozens of times. Weird, right?
Thanks for the 'picture compliment'. :)
that IS weird! for the love, STOP for even ten minutes next time!
Haha. I promise I will. :)
Wow, Patagonia? Sounds awesome :D
Its a really nice place and came to your mind the grand canyon of Colorado.
And eyy... you seem have some difficult for walking in the inclined path :-p :-)
Thanksss for sharing!
I don't have any difficulties. I like making efforts to reach awesome places :)
I know it:-)
It's was just an stupid joke for telling that the inclined path seemed be hard.
Oh, haha. Nothing it's too hard when there is passion :D
Wow, it looks great. It is great that you are travelling so much.
Thanks! :)
Agree with you my first impression was it looked the Gran Canyon and it looks difficult to climb
It is a little difficult but it's totally worth it :)
That beautiful pictures, the colors are incredible
Yep, it's one of my favourite places I've visited :)
Another spectacular hiking adventure in Romania and as you said, a small slice of the Grand Canyon in your home country. You don't need to travel half the world to see it now :p hahaha just kidding, we think we remembered that you said on Discord Travel Group that your one place you want to visit is the Grand Canyon. We hope you make it there one day!
Glad you remembered it! Yep, the Grand Canyon is on top of my bucket list. Thanks for your kind words! :)
You're welcome and we thought so...(scratching our heads for a few minutes)
Have a good weekend! :)
Hahaha. That's so cute! Thanks, have a great weekend too! :)
Do you go hiking every day?! You make me feel like I really need to step away from my computer more haha.
That first pic is my fave!
Thanks! Nope, my posts are from the last 2 years :( I haven't gone to an adventure since January. The next one will be on Monday and then most probably will be a long break until somewhere in august :(
Acum am realizat de ce nu vedeam nimic de la tine. Nu iti dadusem follow. Imi ierti prostia, te rog!
Foarte buna postarea, acum o sa fiu mult mai atent :D
Haha, nicio problema, mersi de follow :)
I never heard of this place. It looks gorgeous. Thank you for putting it on my radar. Maybe during my next trip to Romania I'll find the time to visit it.
I totally recommend it! :)
Gabriela this is so beautiful ! I love your blog posts because they have something unique in it. You always guide the people, you tell them how to get to the destination on the best way possible. I had no clue that Romania has so much to see = )
Thank you for contributing to the Steemit Community.Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to your next posts.
Thank you so much for your support. It really means a lot to me :) today it's coming up the next "let's travel together" post, so stay tuned! :D
Thanks! :)
