About this route

Cluj-Napoca – Lacul Tarnița Transfer

We provide private taxi transfer services on the Cluj-Napoca – Lacul Tarnița route. The total distance is about 35 km, and the estimated travel time is 45 – 60 min in normal traffic conditions.

The weekend escape for Cluj

Lake Tarnita is the closest mountain lake to Cluj-Napoca — around 35 km, or 45 to 60 minutes of driving. The route leaves the city towards Floresti and Gilau, then climbs the road to the dam through wooded hills. The final stretch is narrow and winding, but paved.

There is no public transport

No bus runs to Tarnita. Without a car you get there only by transfer or by getting a lift, which is why it is one of the most requested short weekend trips. The usual booking pattern is out in the morning, back in the evening at an agreed time — so you never depend on anyone for the return.

What to do at Tarnita

  • Boat and kayak trips, rented on the shore
  • Paddleboarding — the water is calm and suits beginners
  • Terraces and pontoons on the shore, open in the warm season
  • Walks in the surrounding hills and towards Somesu Rece
  • Combine with Belis-Fantanele, further up the same road

Practical notes

In summer weekends the area near the dam fills up after 11:00 — an early start makes a real difference. In winter the last stretch can be slippery; we drive on winter tyres at reduced speed. If you are bringing equipment such as a paddleboard, tent or barbecue, mention it when booking so we send a suitable vehicle.

Price

From 160 lei per car for up to 4 passengers, one way. For the out-and-back package on the same day, the price is agreed when you book. For a larger group, see the 17-seat minibus.
