Once you enter the Karakiraz area, the noise of Istanbul fades quickly. The road narrows, the trees grow denser and the main sound of the day becomes the trail beneath your feet.
Find the rhythm of the forest
On medium-difficulty routes like these, the goal is not to race. Climbs, rest points and open clearings create a natural rhythm. The group moves together and the route adapts to the conditions of the day.
Having a good time is part of the goal
A nature walk is not only a sporting activity. Talking, meeting new people, stopping at an unexpected viewpoint and ending the day thinking “I’m glad I came” are just as important as the route itself.
Karakiraz is close to the city without feeling like the city, which makes it a powerful discovery area for TREAD OF WILD.
