Transportation: In order to get there you need to turn off at the 12 km. mark on the Kadirli – Andirin – Kahraman Maras highway. And then turn north (left) and follow the gravel road for 33 km. In the summer months, at certain times, you can find minibuses going from Kadirli.
Description: Along the 33 kilometer road, are several mountain villages such as Akarca Highland, Koclu (Avluk) Village, Pasaolugu highland, Yogunoluk (Katiralagi) village, Degirmendere and Tahta villages. At this mountain plateau, which has had some infrastructure improvements, there is electricity and telephone services as well as a few simple country tea houses, markets, butchers, a doctor and some small restaurants offering kebab and other meat dishes. The plateau, which is frequented by the locals who want to take advantage of the clean cool air up there, is surrounded by a forest of cedar and fir.
Both the local highland houses made of wood and the newer reinforced concrete buildings are covered with apple, pear, cherry, sour cherry and juniper trees. These high mountain plateaus are home to an astounding variety of flowers, insects and birds. Yasar Kemal’s famous novel “Ince Memed” was set in these mountains. If one starts at the highland of Maksutolugu and passes through the highlands of cardak – Gurlevik – Turna – Sogutolugu – Dokurcun – Beyolugu and cigsar, they will come to Yedi gozler, the headwaters of Savrun Creek.
Accommodations – Food and Drink: Camping is an option in there as is renting some of the houses that belong to the locals.
