The Kackar Mountains are part of the Pontic Alps, a glaciated, granite mountain range which hugs the south coast of the Black Sea, extending from the Caucasus towards Istanbul. This 2nd edition of the guidebook and map describe over 30 days of trekking on eight major routes around the Kackar National Park.
Upcountry’s trekking guide to the Kackar covers 32 trekking routes in Turkey''s Kackar mountains, ranging from half-day walks to multi-day treks and allowing for walkers of varying abilities.

You can cross the passes between the granite spires by paved pack-horse routes or walk traditional footpaths between timeless villages and high pastures where hardy locals graze their flocks. The guide also includes GPS points for the routes themselves; comprehensive historical and cultural details of the area; and full-colour photographs.

The guide includes a two-sided full colour topographical map measuring 75cm x48cm. The book comes recommended as there simply aren’t an abundance for trekkers hoping to cover the region.
