Magnificent canyons and national parks of Kastamonu.
Bringing together the fierce nature, steep mountains, and dizzyingly deep wild canyons of the Black Sea region flawlessly, this two-day provincial tour centered in Kastamonu promises an unforgettable experience for nature and adventure enthusiasts. Your journey begins with excitement in the pristine and cool air of the famous Ilgaz Dağı National Park, which is completely covered with lush pine forests and is beautiful in both winter and summer. Right after your invigorating nature walk here, you will respectfully commemorate the challenging but proud historical memories of that period by entering the borders of the İstiklal Yolu TMP, a sacred and historical route where our heroic women carried ammunition during the War of Independence. While descending from nature to the city, you will visit the magnificent Kastamonu Kalesi, one of the most important symbols of Kastamonu watching the city from a high hill, and then make a long cultural journey into the past by thoroughly touring the Kastamonu Müzesi, which successfully reflects the thousands of years of archaeological and ethnographic accumulation of the region as the last stop of the day.
On the second day, you set off again in the early hours of the morning to deeply explore the wild, steep, and untouched canyons of Kastamonu. Your first destination will be the Valla Kanyonu, considered one of the deepest and hardest-to-cross canyons in the world, which literally mesmerizes people when looking down from its observation terraces. After bearing live witness to the grandeur of this massive valley, eroded over thousands of years by the fast-flowing water among steep rocks, you will dive into the depths of the vast Küre Dağları National Park, considered one of the most important nature conservation areas in all of Europe with its rich flora and fauna diversity. Following these pleasant hours where you find peace among lush impenetrable forests, you will visit the Tuzaklı Göleti, which offers a highly relaxing atmosphere with its calm and still waters hidden among steep mountains, and joyfully conclude this oxygen-rich and adrenaline-filled Kastamonu route alone with nature.
