Nature Lovers' Heaven - Turunc Karia Trails
Karia Trail Pagestarting from city of Aydin, passing through Marmaris and Bozburun Peninsula and reaching Datça Knidos, is an ancient commerce route used for centuries. This route is considered to be the longest trail route in Turkey and consists of 4 different parts...
Bozburun Peninsula
Datça Peninsula
Inner Karia
Gulf of Gökova
I will be talking about the Turunç Parkour of the Bozburun Peninsula part with detailed pictures and information. Please don't hesitate to check out the Karia Trail page for more detailed information regarding the whole Karia trail.
Turunc - Icmeler Trail
Turunc - Icmeler trail is one of the most challenging routes, but it offers amazing sceneries. You will feel the satisfaction deep into your lungs and eyes :)
Turunç – Amos Antik Kenti Rotası
Ancient city of Amos is located 3.5 km away from Turunc village center. The city's history routes back to year 200 B.C. Although many artifacts have been stolen throughout the years, there is still plenty to see. It will take you half an hour to walk through the ruins and then the trail will lead you to tip of the city. This spot is amazing for sunsets along with a glass wine with your loved ones.
Turunç – Amos – Baklabükü
We continue our walk on the main road until we reach the far end of Kumlubuk bay. You will see that the road will take a mandatory left turn. This is the point where we enter Baklabuku trail along with many others. After a long walk, you will understand why you have made such an effort to get here when you see the fairy tale like Baklabuku bay.
We also have a section on Diplomat Experiences about things to do in Baklabuku. We help our guests prepare a nice bonfire where we can gather around, share stories, and prepare our food. Depending on our guests' choice, going back is optional by boat, car or a walk.
Turunc - Canyon Trail
This trail is one of my favorite spots to go for a walk. The entrance is located by the hills of Osmaniye ve Bayır. This is a must see especially during the spring months because of the creeks filling up with water. You may be able to reach to the top of the mountain after having a nice break, maybe a quick swim in the canyon.
