Hoia Forest

This forest has multitudes of trails. It goes pretty high up so that you have fantastic views of the surrounding area. You can access it from 360°. I recommend it if you want some quiet time up in the forest.

Me, Dracula,Murray,Frank and Griffin chill out here. Don't let Wayne or Wanda know I spilled the beans but the Transylvania hotel for monsters is hidden here and we welcome humans to come and visit us, join the spinning class, try scream cheese and meet the oddly weird human johnny

I not been here just looked up as ment to be most haunted,is it just some folk lore you know like a urban legend and people go freak themselves out with their own imagination and think experience something. Your going to hear things at night a lot night animals make strange noises and imagination be working overload. The strange bending trees do look bit spooky so feel eerie but isn't it just the imagination tricking your brain to thinking seen something. Looks pretty forest and the bending trees probably get some great abstract photos

At just over one square mile this relatively small forest is now notorious for it's haunted reputation and alleged UFO activity. Many trails penetrate it's gloomy undergrowth overshadowed by trees, some of which spiral unnaturally towards a sky heavily laden with an atmosphere of deathly quietness and uneasy stillness. Those of a certain ethereal sensitivity will become unpleasantly conscious of ghostly phenomena within the shadows which surround the forests mysterious circular "dead zone". From dusk and into the hours of darkness a new and surreal elevation of the senses may grip those who choose to venture into these dubiously inviting woods!

Searched for the curvy trees, but now we realized those photoes you see on google pictures was not taken around here. Otherwise it is a very chilling and nice place to enjoy nature a littlebit.

A must see when visiting Cluj-Napoco. This forest is one of the most haunted on the planet. Also known for UFO sightings. The trees grow in clockwise spiral shapes that are unexplained and the forest contains a circle where no trees will grow..also unexplained. We booked a private tour through the Hoia Baciu Project. If you book from their website directly the company receives the entire payment as opposed to booking through trip advisor who assumes much of the money. Alex was our guide and he provided us with an amazing one of a kind experience.

It was always a very welcome doze of energy to walk on paths of Hoia-Baciu forest. Wether we talk about a simple walk or a bycicle ride or just a picnic, this amazing and unique forest proved to be a great host. But there are bad parts and, as usual, it only involves humans as negative characters: those who by riding ATVs disturb the silence and kill the insects. Also, you see trash, spreaded all over; shameful for those and for the authorithies who don't share fees. It's fun, it's chill, cathartic for many, disturbing for nature because of others. Apart from that, if you're brave enaugh to enter this haunted forest, be prepared to find no ghosts, but mythical impressive trees, many that grow in zig-zag patterns or in spirals, happening in a counter clockwise dirrection. "The forest is only haunted if you bring your own ghosts."

A usual, nice and quiet forest. No bent trees, no paranormal activity. Google maps shows erroneous information sometimes, but that's because of bad network coverage, so no aliens or portals. No strange things in photos, just an ordinary forest close to a beautiful and crowded city. Worth visiting, maybe you find something special :)
