Altindere Vadisi National Park

Travel Guide

If you want to see a really cool monastery, get to the Black Sea in Turkey and along to Trabzon. Sumela monastery is a car trip out of town. You must walk the final part up to this monastery built into the cliff face in AD 386. This is one of my most favourite discoveries because it's still quite unknown. I'll post a photo of the inside next. #Trove on #Architecture

I took these photos back in 2007. The memories of this fabulous monastery come flooding back. If you are into out-of-the-way places there is none better than Sumela Monastery near the Black Sea. #Trove on
This is the Sumela monastery out of Trabzon. What looks like just a facade hanging on the cliff face encloses a whole village within. The wire you see is a flying fox to get materials in and out of the steep entrance. #Trove on #Architecture #Details This is truly a hidden gem on the inside.
The colours in the frescoes were just like this! Sumela monastery will have you in awe. You need to make it a purpose to get out there from Trabzon because it's not on the way to anywhere.
Enjoy exploring the beautiful surroundings at Altindere Vadisi National Park. Slip on your boots, fill your water bottle and hit the hiking trails.

After you've finished up at this protected natural landscape in Black Sea Coast, there are plenty of other things to keep you entertained in the area. Many travelers make tracks to Sümela Monastery next. It's within easy reach of Altindere Vadisi National Park. Why not add it to your itinerary?

10/10 Exceptional! (3 reviews)
A wonderful stay, a very high-end chalet, with a stunning view. In the heart of the forest, complete peace and quiet… Just remember to bring your own supplies, as there’s no market nearby, otherwise everything else is perfect!
