Bolu-Muşakiye-Ormanya Tour

Dear guests, we depart from Hatay İskenderun at 21:30 from our designated boarding points, accompanied by onboard refreshments, for our journey to Yedigöller, a region in the Western Black Sea known for its rich vegetation and natural habitat. Optionally, we head towards this wonderful place. After entering Bolu city center, we immerse ourselves in the embrace of nature, with each corner offering unique excitement. We explore the seven natural lakes (Nazlı, Sazlı, Derin, Serin, Büyük, Küçük, Kuru) and one artificial lake. Breathing in the refreshing oxygen-rich air, we indulge in a leisurely walk, and later, we return on the same path. Next, we proceed to Abant Lake. Upon arrival, we disembark from the vehicle at the entrance and take a short walk around the lake with our guide. The walk is comfortable and suitable for everyone. During your free time, you can engage in various activities around the lake. If weather conditions permit, you can enjoy horseback or carriage riding, or even try kayaking with village boats (Extra). After spending a wonderful time at Abant Lake, we leave for our hotel for dinner and an overnight stay.

After a delightful breakfast at the hotel, we arrive at Güzeldere Waterfall, a designated "Forest Rest Area" by the Ministry of Forestry and General Directorate of Nature Conservation and National Parks. This natural wonder is covered with various tree species, including beech, alder, fir, pine, chestnut, linden, and maple. We take a refreshing morning walk amidst the trees, arriving at Güzeldere Waterfall. As Turkey's highest flowing waterfall (135 meters), it offers a captivating sight. After experiencing this marvel of nature, you will have free time to immerse yourself in nature, take plenty of photographs, and enjoy various activities. Next, we board the bus and head to Sapanca Lake, a preferred destination for those seeking refuge from city noise and stress. After our guide provides information about Sapanca Lake, you will have leisure time for a walk by the lake and take beautiful photographs. Afterward, we proceed to Maşukiye, where we have our lunch break (Extra). Following the meal, those interested can participate in activities such as zip-lining, ATV, and UTV (Extra), while others can opt for hiking amidst Maşukiye's famous waterfalls. After the Maşukiye visit, we take a break for you to taste local products such as jams and pişmaniye and have some shopping time. Our next destination is Ormanya Natural Life Park, considered a significant project for preserving natural life. The park, spread over approximately 4,000 acres, houses 53 different species of animals and plants, where you can observe the stages of food production, farming, and milking in a natural setting. Our guide provides ample free time to savor the experience. After the free time, we gather at the designated time, board our bus, and start the return journey.
