About this route
Cluj-Napoca – Gilău Transfer
We provide private taxi transfer services on the Cluj-Napoca – Gilău route. The total distance is about 20 km, and the estimated travel time is 25 – 35 min in normal traffic conditions.
Gilau, 20 kilometres west
Gilau is the commune at the western exit from Cluj towards Oradea, beyond Floresti, around 20 km from the centre — 25 to 35 minutes on the DN1. It is both a commuter village for Cluj and the junction from which the roads to the Apuseni lakes branch off.
Gateway to the lakes and the mountains
- Lake Tarnita — the climb starts at Gilau; see the Tarnita route
- Marisel — further up the same road; see the Marisel route
- Belis-Fantanele — see the Belis route
- Somesu Rece and Somesu Cald, for short hikes
Traffic on the DN1
The Cluj – Floresti – Gilau stretch is one of the busiest in the county. In the morning, between 07:00 and 09:00, the queue towards the city can double the journey time; the same happens in reverse in the evening. For scheduled rides we build in slack and, where possible, use alternative routes.
Fixed price
From 90 lei per car for up to 4 passengers. The price is set when you book and does not change if we hit traffic — a real advantage on precisely this route, where the duration varies so much.
