Everyone likes to relax: from everyday work, the daily rush, boring situation. Everyone rests in different ways. One just lays on the couch, the other walks to entertainment venues, the third wants to go to an overseas country. But everyone has one thing in common: the desire to be happy. And what makes us feel happy? Of course, as many people, as many answers we will get. But no one will deny the truth that a healthy body and full of positive experiences in any of us evokes joyful feelings. In those moments, we literally fly! If you want to get such bursts of spiritual uplift, join the Couloir team! Our goal is to give the participants of trips organized by us such coveted moments of happiness. Try an active vacation in Turkey with Kuluar people for a start.
What do we offer? Let’s say at once that we have developed several routes in this Eastern country, for all categories of the population. We took into account different interests of people, their wishes, preferences and physical fitness. So, let’s go.
This eastern country has a large territory, is famous for its richly diverse nature. It has everything: plains, deserts, forests, steppes, lakes, rivers with waterfalls, created beautiful national parks. The country is washed by the Black, Marmara and Aegean Seas. This is probably why many people are used to considering the Republic of Turkey exclusively as a beach holiday destination with developed resort infrastructure with “all-inclusive”.
But guys, what this country has beautiful mountains and volcanoes!
Yes, yes, the vast majority of the country is mountainous. In the south are the Pontic Mountains, along the Mediterranean coast – the Taurus Mountains, in the center (in the area of the Armenian highlands) rises the world-famous Mount Ararat.
So, taking sun and sea baths can be quite combined with a more active holiday on Turkish soil:
A tent is freedom: where I want, where I live. Hiking in Turkey with “Couloir” will suit everyone who wants to forget the stuffy and dusty city, who loves freedom, romance, and the beauty of nature, who wants to test themselves, to gain interesting experience of active hiking, to make new friends.
Sign up for a hiking trip with tents to have a wonderful, with “open-air” comfort rest in beautiful places, to gain strength and positive emotions, filled with joy to return home.
We go further, and as part of an active holiday in Turkey, we offer a route (hiking trek) along the most picturesque area of the Turkish land – the Lycian Trail. In times immemorial, this area was home to the ancient kingdom of Lycia. Lyciye is good all year round, but it is the coolest in the fall and spring. The Lycian Way hike is a thrilling ride through the high mountain region of the Taurus Mountains to the protected beaches of the Mediterranean Sea. The route is very interesting and informative. The path passes through a beautiful canyon. On the trekking we are waiting for:
Hiking to Lycian Way is an unforgettable trip for both beginners and experienced hikers, families with children, and groups of friends. You are sure to fall in love with the local beauty, imbued with ancient history!
West Lycia is the dream of every lover of interesting and unusual journeys! Amazing place gives a fairy tale and a holiday during the whole absolutely comfortable trip! We are waiting for:
And then there are the cool mountain streams, the Valley of Butterflies, surrounded by steep cliffs, the sea of fruit growing along the trail. You can enjoy the sweet aroma of ripe oranges, pomegranates, tangerines, grapefruits, and pistachio nuts picked right from the trees. You can pick olives, lemons, and other exotic fruits for dinner.
The finish of the trekking is the gentle sea. On the trek you will get to know the unique nature, find new friends, relax completely, as time here has stopped, ceased to exist.
West Lycia is a vacation of body and soul, a sea of pleasure from the views, joyful communication, delicious food, perfect weather. It is a holiday that will stay with you forever!
We continue to talk about such a variety of active holidays in Turkey. The north of the country is covered by the Pontic Mountains, and our goal is the Lazistan Range with the mountain Kackar (3937 m). This route will surprise you with wildlife and adventure. Break away from the hustle and bustle of the city to hike, on your own feet, through these amazing places with real rainforests, alpine meadows, clear lakes and glaciers. The mountain 9-day trek through the territory of Kachkar Mountains attracts by its small “unwinding”, unhiked nature, absence of people, almost complete isolation from the “joys of civilization”. According to the plan: the main event is climbing Kachkar. On the way we are waited for:
Well, let’s test our strength in the uncomplicated, but still extreme conditions of the Turkish mountains! And at the end of the hike we’ll have a rest on the Black Sea. The combination of pleasant and useful – this is what the hiking tour along Kachkar is like! Pack your backpack!
We present you the new 800-kilometer route through the southwestern Turkish land, more precisely through the Datca Peninsula, which is washed by the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas, which was completed in 2013. The Kariya Trail will take us through the wilderness of the seashore. We will pass through ancient urban ruins, rocky massifs, beautiful secluded bays, swim in the warmest sea on the wild beaches, breathe in the fresh mountain sea air with the flavor of olive and almond trees.
Hiking under backpacks is not complicated, even comfortable, with small rises and drops in altitude, as they say, for your own pleasure. Parking – in equipped campsites with hot showers, sleeping in close proximity to the sea, sea sunrises and sunsets, pleasant silence and privacy. And this, too, is an active holiday in Turkey with the team “Kuluar”!
The Carian Trail is a very interesting and quite varied journey, without the crowds of tourists, infrastructure, but with surprises and real discoveries. Feel like a jungle pioneer, an adventurer. It is worth it!
Many parents cannot imagine a vacation without their children. And we welcome this, so we invite you to take your children on a hike along the beautiful Lycian Trail, which runs along the Mediterranean coast. It is not even a hike, it is a pleasant walk along the cozy mountain paths, swimming and relaxing on the sand in wild bays, exploring the ancient ruins, visiting the local villages. Adults and kids will be satiated with ancient legends, listen to fascinating stories, and eat delicious fruits. A family trip will benefit the children, they:
