KAZDAĞLARI TOUR
We are going to rest in the magnificent nature of Kazdağları and listen to the legend of Hasan Boğuldu on site...
Places to Visit
*Kazdağları National Park
*Hasan Boğuldu Pond
*Kızılkeçili Village
*Monumental Plane Tree
*Sarıkız Museum
*Zeus Altar
*Adatepe
We start our journey by picking up our guests from the meeting points. We enjoy the coolness of Hasan Boğuldu located within the borders of the National Park as we pass through the Yörük village of Zeytinli located at the foot of Kazdağları. While breathing in the fresh air among the tall pine trees, we listen to the legendary story that has inspired films from our guide as we reach the Hasan Boğuldu pond. After a short break at a local market, we head to Sütüven Waterfall, where we can also take a swimming break after we reach the waterfall that cascades from a height of 17 meters. Then we arrive at Kızılkeçili village, home to an 800-year-old monumental plane tree. We visit the ancient tree and continue our tour.
We visit the Sarıkız Museum, reflecting the culture of the Türkmen people living in the area, and then arrive at Pınarbaşı for lunch. After lunch, we ascend to the Zeus Altar located in Çanakkale. We take photographs of the magnificent bay view and listen to the mythological story of the Zeus Altar from our guide before moving on to the Rum village of Adatepe. After a refreshing break at a quaint village café in the square known for its stone houses, we explore the village before completing our tour and heading back. We hope to see you on the next Kyzikos Travel tour…
NOTE: Depending on road traffic, conditions, fog, and weather, our arrival time in Erdek may be later than planned. A specific return time cannot be given; an average time will be indicated according to the program flow.
