What makes Oratiei Canyon unique compared to other canyoning destinations in Romania?

Three things with no equal: it's the only completely dry canyon, with no water; the route follows the former border between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Kingdom of Romania, with the ruins of a medieval customs fortress and a cart track with wheel ruts carved in stone; and it offers isolated alpine scenery just 1 km from the car park, 1 hour from Brasov.
