Perșani Mountains

The Perșani Mountains (Romanian: Munții Perșani; Hungarian: Persányi-hegység) is a mountain range in central Romania.

Within Romania, however, it is traditional to divide the Eastern Carpathians in Romanian territory into three geographical groups (north, center, south), instead.

The main ridge runs in a north–south direction and has a length of 60 kilometres (37 mi).

The Perșani Mountains consists mainly of basalt, shale, and flysch.

The geologic diversity of the rock results in interesting natural phenomena (basalt formations, caves, canyons).
