Akyazı Acelle Yaylası

It is a good opportunity for those who love the highland air. It is a great advantage to be close to Istanbul. You can enter it in two ways. One is soil and the other is asvalt. Even if there are partially rough surfaces, you can easily get out in a normal car. Golet is just fine. There are toilet and fountain facilities. A nice area for camping and photographers. I recommend you to visit Sultanpınar Plateau while you are here.

First of all, its roads are not as bad as they think, at least until the plateau, completely asphalt. There were no campers yet when we left. So we talked to the village president and the shepherd, as we didn't know where to camp, and they were both very interested. The president of the association showed us a very nice place, we put the camp there and asked if we need anything from time to time and it is as safe as they say. Both the inhabitants of the plateau and no one in the vicinity were disturbed. When we were gone, they said that wild animals did not land in the plateau during this period, but fire was thrown from time to time. The highland offers a lot to everyone who comes, both in terms of nature and safety, but despite this, we have despised the visitors, even in the small area we have been exposed to, there were many fires and 5 bags of garbage. It is very sad to use such places of paradise as contempt, we should know its value. It is a place that can be preferred in every respect for those who want to come. We were very pleased, thanks to the head of the association and the shepherd.

We came here from Bursa on 23.08.2020. We left comfortably in a passenger car, the road was cold asphalt. As of the season, the villagers were at the hazelnut harvest along the way, but we could not see one that we could buy, and when we moved to the south side, there was no hazelnut garden left. We stopped on the flag hill that greeted us first, and as everyone has stated, there is constant gunfire and it is very disturbing. There were picnicians and campers, but those who went and wanted to relax by the lake can find a place, it was not overcrowded, considering the picnic areas in Bursa. The air is clean, blowing cool. We have cattle-heavy animal friends everywhere around the plateau houses and some of them almost sat at the table with picnickers. We entered the stabilized road between Acelle and Sultanpınar. It was a very comfortable road for us. If you want to spend time, see the Acelle Plateau, but Sultanpınar is much better, very wide and with a higher altitude, its flora is more beautiful. Unfortunately, there is a wide road and construction work towards the plateaus after Sultanpınar. It was called RES, but afterwards, other facilities are definitely built. There is a serious amount of tree cutting and highland destruction. While we were going to have a happy whole day, we were completely depressed and there were no officials left that we did not swear. I tried hard not to cry ..

It is a spring with an altitude of about 1200 meters. It gets very crowded at festive time. Therefore, it is useful to go in quiet times. There is a very ugly concrete structure by the lake, I hope the number will not increase, the picnic places are very dirty, everywhere is full of garbage, beer bottles and wet wipes. The roads are gravelly stabilized road, the asphalt starts after a certain point, you are already out of a hurry. The view in the hills is a click better. Although Karagöl pedestrian is paid entrance, it can be preferred.

Points awarded are not based on nature, transportation, location, etc. The transportation nature location is very nice. But I'm going to comment from a camper's window, not a window that comes in for a few hours and lights the barbecue, feeds and leaves the trash. I'm sure the profiles I just mentioned will give 5 stars here. Because while this place was frequented by rare campers, now the usage area of ​​campers is very limited and the square is allocated to the person profile I mentioned above.

Be sure to consider what I have written or you may be upset. After leaving Adapazarı mudurnu road, most of the road is broken asvalt. You can go by normal vehicle, no problem. However, the road is very winding and narrow. There is no place to shop on the way, so get everything before you arrive. There is a fountain in the plateau, the water flows less, but you will not have any water shortage. When you enter the forest, you can find plenty of wood. For this, you have to go as far as the forest and put it in the trunk. Make sure you have an ax and a saw with you. Turkcell suffers, but the internet is weak. Vodafone does not. There are toilets. The water flows, but of course the cleaning is poor. From some points you can go to the toilet by car. I went the first week of October, the daytime is incredibly hot. Since there are no trees around the lake, if you do not have a shade, you get burned. If you don't have a winter sleeping bag, be sure to buy a thick quilt or even a blanket. Although we dressed 5 layers with blankets, we could not sleep due to shivering until morning. The car window had frozen in the morning. Naturally there are a lot of jackals and they come close to you. Of course, they don't attack, but they don't run away from you. Therefore, put your belongings in the car or tent while you go to bed at night. Also, the jackals are howling until morning. For this reason, do not install the tent in the forest. They don't hesitate to come to you. I don't know if it's worth going all that way, but I'll never go again.

We went through Akyazı Kuzuluk. Except for the last 4 km, the road is asphalt. The last four kilometers are not bad either. All types of vehicles can come. Those who said their way was bad probably went the other way. We took the route specified by Google Maps and did not have any problems. We went on Saturday. Although there are many people, every part of the lake is available. You are not in the bottom with the nation. If you do not have a shade, you may have trouble in sunny weather. Because there are not many trees near the lake. We liked the lake and its surroundings very much. Although I have always been a fan of going to different places, I think of going here again. There are fish in the lake, but they don't come to fishing much. The fountain is also everywhere.

We camped for 2 nights. Toilet is available, its cleanliness is relative but usable, sufficient. Electricity is available. Water is available, we drank nothing. It is not forbidden to light a fire, there are tables in certain places. No wind at night and until 10am but it blows constantly during the day, only that was a bit uncomfortable. That's why I didn't give 5 stars. Fishing is possible in the lake. If you take a garbage bag and collect the garbage around, your view will be even more perfect. They talked about coyotes a lot in the comments, but even his voice sounds very far away. Compared to the plateau, the road is very good.
