Küre Mountains National Park

Central Anatolia


The vast majority of this 37,000-hectare national park is still largely undiscovered by tourism. Spots that have been developed include the small Ilıca waterfall (Ilıca şelasesi) with a walkway leading to the waterfall, and the Horma Canyon (Horma Kanyonu), with a boardwalk suspended halfway up the canyon cliff. There is a basic ecolodge near the waterfall.
