We start our Uzungöl and Demirkapı Plateau Private Day Tour with the freedom to begin at your desired time and the convenience of picking you up from your hotel in a comfortable vehicle. Accompanied by your guide, we embark on an unforgettable journey from Trabzon to Uzungöl. Our first stop is a short shopping break at the Sürmene Knife Factory, where you can find the famous handmade knives of the Black Sea region. Here, you'll have the opportunity to closely observe knives crafted by skilled artisans and, if you wish, purchase these unique items. Next, we proceed to the Tea Factory. Here, you'll learn about the traditional tea production process and discover the secrets of brewing the perfect cup of tea.
We arrive at Uzungöl amid the enchanting landscapes of the Solaklı Valley. From the Uzungöl Observation Terrace, you can watch the lake from a bird's-eye view and take unforgettable photographs. Then, we proceed along the Haldizen Valley and its river, reaching the Demirkapı Plateau, offering you the chance to spend a day in harmony with nature, away from the stress and noise of the city. After our break in the plateau, which boasts seasonal color displays, rich flora, snowy peaks, misty mountains, and unspoiled nature, we visit Balıklı Lake at an altitude of 2,500 meters and Aygır Lake at 2,700 meters near the summit of Mount Soğanlı. Here, you can breathe in the crisp mountain air, explore the region's rich flora and fauna through nature walks, and capture unique shots for photography enthusiasts.
In the final part of our tour, we return to Uzungöl, providing you with free time for lunch and to complete any unfinished explorations in Uzungöl. You can take a leisurely walk around the lake or enjoy a peaceful break in scenic cafes. You are free to choose the time and place for your lunch break.
