Description:
Cinerites of Nutasca – Ruseni is a geological protected natural area of national interest. It includes sedimentary pyroclastic sedimentary deposits of cemented volcanic ash, andesitic cinerites and large fragments of andesitic andesitic, intercalated in the sediments. Their origin is controversial, and there are speculations and theories that they are the result of extra-Carpathian volcanic manifestations.
On the hill of Pătul, on top of these sediments is the place called Stânca la Trei Cruci. The road from the village to here follows the Way of the Holy Cross. The view is beautiful, opening onto the villages to the north and the surrounding hills.
