Cerdacul Stanciului, a natural monument, is one of the most spectacular karst formations in the Piatra Craiului Mountains. This natural archway, carved into the massive limestone, represents a real gateway to this imposing massif.

His name is linked to a legend whose protagonist is the outlaw Stanciu Bratu. It is said that he had his hiding place in the cave at Cerdacul Stanciului, and the name of the formation would be a testimony of his presence in the area.

Cerdacul Stanciului is the result of a long process of erosion and shaping of limestone by water. The verticality of the walls led to the formation of caves of impressive dimensions, and the collapse of their ceilings created spectacular arches.

There are several trails that lead to Cerdacul Stanciului, and their difficulty varies. The nearest cabins are Plaiul Foii and Garofita Pietrei Craiului. No matter which route you choose, the hike is rewarded by the impressive landscapes, limestone walls and the area's typical rut.
