Turkiye. Mt. Dededağ. Can’t be reached.
It was a hike with Izdak.org. We wanted to get to Mount Dededağ. But we encountered a problem – a new dam had been built on the old road. Our guide chose the wrong route – along the right bank of the river. We walked along the river and couldn’t cross it because there were no…

Turkiye. Mt. Bozdağ (2159m) #2
It was a hike with Izdak.org. The weather forecast promised rain, but at first, as we walked through the forest, everything was fine—just cloudy. But as we climbed higher and left the forest behind, the weather took a turn for the worse. There was heavy fog, wind, and rain on the mountain, which at times…

Turkiye. Mt. Spil (1530m) #4. Beşpınar- Paşaini Mağarası-Spil Zirve-At Alanı.
It was a hike with Izdak.org. This isn’t my first hike up the mountain with the club. And the route we chose wasn’t difficult — from the south side. Last time we climbed from the north side, which is much more difficult. But this time the weather intervened. Meteorologists had predicted heavy rain, but it…

Turkiye. Mt. Nif (1510m) #3. Taşduvar – Nif zirve – Kemalpaşa.
This hike was with touristic club Izdak. Nothing particularly noteworthy except for thick fog near the summit. An uneventful route approximately 19 km long. Thankfully, there was no rain! wikiloc

Turkiye. Yukarikizilca – Mt. Mahmut (1352m) – Yukarikizilca. Frozen forest.
This hike was with touristic club Izdak. I have been previously to mt. Mahmut but it was autumn and another pathway (post). Last time our path ran along rocks and narrow ridges. It was interesting and challenging. This time our guide led us by more traditional but safe roads. The challenge was the weather not the…

Turkiye. Kiriklar – Mt. Gelin (1497m) – Kaynaklar.
I’ve been at mt. Gelin a couple of years ago (post). That time the weather was sunnier. This hike was by another pathway. And the weather was different. It was cloudy. The clouds lay right on top of the mountain, but they weren’t just lying there, they were moving with the wind. Their movement resembled…

Turkiye. Mt. Murat (2312m). Kula – Salihli Unesco Global Geopark.
It was two-day activity with a small team from Idadik.org. We started from Izmir at Friday night and reached thermal resort at the foot of the Murat mountain before the dawn. After a brief preparation, we switched on our headlamps and set off for the mountain. We climbed most of the steep, forest-covered slope in…

Turkiye. Kavaklidere – Nazarkoy.
I have been there almost the same date last year but today the weather was opposite – warm and sunny. You can compare the difference by yourself. The hike was with touristic club Izdak. The total distance was about 21 km and the elevation gain was 877m. Wikilock

We woke up early in the morning. Pick up time was at 4:45 am. Start point was not far from our hotel. When we reached the start point the weather conditions was unstable. And then it started to rain. We began to think that the flight would not take place, but the rain quickly stopped.…
