About Ordu: Scenery and Beach Tour

Located in a unique geography where the lush mountains of the Black Sea embrace the deep blue waters, Ordu promises a fascinating trip with its natural beauties and rich historical texture. Stretching from the city's most striking peaks to hidden waterfalls and peaceful crater lakes, this two-day route is specially prepared for nature and scenery enthusiasts. The first day of the trip enthusiastically begins with a delightful climb to the legendary Boztepe, which offers a tremendous opportunity to view the entire city from a bird's-eye perspective. Taking inspiration from the Boztepe Seyir point, which lays the endless sea under your feet, the journey proceeds directly to the Ordu Müzesi to explore the archaeological heritage of the region. While the precious artifacts exhibited here shed light on the city's deep-rooted past, the day's majestic conclusion takes place at Kurul Kalesi. Gaining worldwide fame with the statue of the Mother Goddess Cybele unearthed during excavations, this historical site makes the first day by presenting the mystery of the past accompanied by a tremendous natural landscape.

The second day departs completely from the crowded coastline and heads towards the untouched interior regions, high forests, and cool waters of Ordu. Gliding through lush valleys and pouring down from a height of thirty meters, Ohtamış Şelalesi provides visitors with genuine nature therapy through the soothing sound of water and incredibly refreshing air. Immediately following this cooling break, Evliya Tepesi, known for its silence and grandeur at the peak of the mountains, is visited. After spending peaceful moments in the heart of nature, a relaxing walk is taken along the shores of Ulugöl Tabiat Parkı, which turns into a riot of colors in autumn. While the calm waters of this crater lake soothe the souls of visitors, the wild nature and broad horizon of Sakarat Tepe, the final impressive stop of the route, allow you to fully feel the spirit of the Black Sea, concluding this intense nature tour gloriously.
