Se află la marginea estică a Podișului Hârtibaciului, la cca 66 km de Brașov, în partea central-nordică a județului. Căi de acces: pe DN 13 Brașov-Sighișoara, până la km 66, în centrul orașului Rupea, de aici se poate urca pe un drum de acces după cca 500 m atingându-se altitudinea de 579 m. Suprafața ivirii de bazalt este de aproape 5 ha, dar împreună cu sedimentele ce acoperă bazaltele, zona tampon se ajunge la un areal de 9 ha. Stânca bazaltică de la Rupea - Punctul cel mai vestic de apariție a bazaltelor din Munții Perșani se găsește izolat în plină zonă de apariție a formațiunilor terțiare ale Bazinului Transilvaniei. Rezervația se află situată pe un relief colinar rezidual (stânca de bazalt), a cărui suprafață se suprapune în rest pe formațiunile sedimentare marginale ale Podișului Hârtibaciului. Bazaltele sunt compacte și nu au produse piroclastice. Surse text și foto: http://www.brasovtourism.eu/; http://www.rupeaturistica.ro/; http://romaniasalbatica.ro/

Prezenţa vulcanilor noroioşi în Bazinul Transilvaniei este favorizată de prezenţa acumulărilor de gaze şi a apelor de zăcământ şi a depozitelor sedimentare, care servesc ca strat sursă de material pentru vulcanii noroioşi. Pe la mijlocul sec. XX au apărut primele emanaţii de noroi, care au clădit acești vulcani noroioși, un caz geologic extrem de rar. Au fost observați şase astfel de vulcani în perimetrul care constituie situl geologic protejat. Vulcanii Noroioși de la Homorod se manifestă diferit. Doi dintre ei au o activitate sporadică şi cel mai probabil gradul lor de activitate este influenţat de greutatea masei de apă care îi presează. Unul dintre cei mai activi este denumit Homorod 3, acesta având o erupție chiar în infrastructura drumului. Homorod 4 este de tip bazin noroios și este cel mai activ, putând fi văzut bolborosind.

Comăna Cave (or the Cave from Poiana Mănăstirii) is a naturally protected area of a speological type. The cave of Comăna is situated in the central part of Perșani Mountains, upstream from the village of Comăna de Sus, Brașov County.

Localizată în apropiere de comuna Holbav, pe Dealul Ghirtalău, între Pârâul Crucii şi Pârâul Lupului, aria protejată desemnată în anul 2004, cuprinde fosta carieră de argilă Holbav. Succesiunea litologică de aproximativ 230 – 250 de metri lungime a rezervaţiei, reprezintă un sit geologic de cercetare ştiinţifică pentru facultăţile de specialitate în domeniile geologie, geografie, protecţia mediului, ecologie sau minerit. În vecinătatea rezervaţiei se află satul Holbav, unde se pot observa tradiţiile păstrate cu grijă de locuitorii zonei şi peisaje rupte parcă dintr-un basm. De la punctul numit La Cruce, aproape de vârful unui deal, se pot privi împrejurimile ce străjuiesc satul, dar și culmile Parcului național Piatra Craiului.

This is a botanical reservation, and it represents an important area in the depression of Brașov County. It is well justified that it has been declared a natural reservation. It is situated in the central part of Brașov county, at the eastern side of Țara Bârsei, near Olt River, and at a height of 525 m. It is crossed by several rivers and rapids, such as: Husbav, Valea Morilor, Pârâul de sub Coastă, and it is fed by numerous springs which are remains of the former glacial relicvs. The terrain is plain, specific to the relief of the area. Here, the average annual temperature is 7 degrees C, and during wintertime it is 5 degrees below 0 C. Although the precipitation is well reduced, the humidity of the area remains. The reservation is somewhat protected, but the initial surface has been reduced by the drainage made in the area, and nowadays it has an unsatisfactory look.
