Geography


The commune lies on the Transylvanian Plateau, on the banks of the river Bandău, a right tributary of the Someșul Mic. It is located in the northeastern part of the county, on the border with Bistrița-Năsăud County, at a distance of 18 km (11 mi) from the city of Dej and 78 km (48 mi) from the county seat, Cluj-Napoca.

Unguraș borders the following communes: Braniștea to the north, Nușeni to the east (both in Bistrița-Năsăud County), Sânmartin to the south, and Mintiu Gherlii and Mica to the west (the last three in Cluj County). The commune is crossed by county road DJ161D, which starts in Valea Ungurașului and ends in Dej.
