Latest Check-Ins
Nice lake view, popular by locals for picnic or late night drink. Lot of waste in the water and bushes. Jendarme came to check and told us (with google translate) that it was okay to stay. Gave us instructions to call 156 in case of emergency because of locals drinking alcohol and using drugs during the night at the lake. Some locals were having a drink, but we had no troubles with them. Frogs and birds can be noisy during the night. Acceptable to stay for a night.
Report Check-InThis exact spot was occupied by fishermen, but about a kilometer west we found a quiet spot to ourselves. The Jandarma did come by during the night the check up on us. Unfortunately we didn't understand their Turkish, but we understood "no problem" and "sleep OK". The temperature of the lake was perfect for a morning swim.
