Canyoning Porumbacu — the complete adventure in the heart of the Făgăraș Mountains

Canyoning in Porumbacu means 3–4 hours of authentic adrenaline in the most beautiful canyon in southern Transylvania. Waterfalls, natural slides, abseiling and rock traverses — all with certified guides and full equipment included. Just 20 minutes from Sibiu, at the gateway to the Făgăraș Mountains. The price of 300 lei per adult (280 lei for children 10–16 years) includes absolutely everything you need for a memorable outdoor day in Transylvania.

Sunrise or Sunset — you choose the vibe

🌅 Sunrise Tour (09:00) — The morning is yours and the Transfăgărășan's

You set off early, when the canyon is all yours: small groups, cold mountain air, morning light on the waterfalls of the Făgăraș Mountains. And the most important advantage of the Sunrise tour: it leaves you time to visit the famous Transfăgărășan and enjoy the bears that live along it. Romania's most spectacular road is just 40 minutes from the canyon — a full day of outdoor adventure, with everything you've dreamed of.

🌇 Sunset Tour (14:00) — Relaxed, straight from downtown Sibiu into the canyon

You don't have to wake up at dawn. The Sunset tour is perfect if you want a tasty coffee in charming downtown Sibiu in the morning — or if you're coming from further away and want to arrive without rushing. You park, gear up, and head into the canyon. In the evening you're free for dinner in Sibiu or a sunset drive on the Transfăgărășan.
