Lacul Tarnița

The La Poduri wetland, located at 1600 m altitude is included in the Gilău-Muntele Mare Mountains group and is located, administratively, in the Valea Ierii commune. It covers an area of ​​approx. 20 ha, being an oligotrophic peatland, formed by the accumulation of peat in conditions of high humidity and acid soil.

Rare plant species grow here, such as the sky dew, a carnivorous plant adapted to nutrient-poor soils. The area is important for biodiversity and offers a spectacular landscape, with vegetation specific to high-altitude swamps.

A thematic trail has been set up in the La Poduri wetland area, destined for tourists and created to stimulate the practice of sustainable tourism.
