Edremit Attractions
Whether you lie on its clean beaches and cool off in the clear sea, or experience the peace with plenty of oxygen in the lap of nature; or visit its museums, historical monuments and ancient cities. There are many reasons to come to Edremit, which is almost a paradise descended to earth.
Kaz Mountain National Park is undoubtedly one of the top places to visit in Edremit. The structure formed by deep valleys and canyons is a unique beauty with its diversity of flora and fauna. Of the 800 plant species detected, 77 are found only in Turkey and 29 only in Kaz Mountains. The Kazdağı Fir, from which the Trojan Horse was made, is one of these 29 special species. Kaz Mountains, which have become the center of outdoor sports such as hiking, mountaineering, jeep-safari and off-road with its natural habitats and abundant oxygen, is also the highest mountain of the Biga Peninsula. Mount Ida, which hosted the first beauty contest in history and is known as Mount Ida in mythology, is also known as the place where Zeus ruled the Trojan War.
Another place you should see in the Kaz Mountains National Park is Darıdere Nature Park. The park, which has the second highest oxygen rate in the world after the Swiss Alps, is located in the south of Edremit Bay. In this fascinating place where nature and sea come together, you can feel the sweet breeze of the north wind and valley breeze on your face, and taste the fir cone tea and pine jam unique to this region.
Sarıkız Hill, the highest peak of the Kaz Mountains, can be reached by car. You can't get enough of the scenery you watch, not only when you get to the top, but at every step of the climb. The 1776-meter-high hill takes its name from parables. Sarıkız is an Islamic folk tale and belief extending from the Turkmen legends settled on Mount Ida to Iran. If you happen to be here in August, do not leave without attending the annual Sarıkız Festival. In the event, which has become a festival that has been followed with interest by local and foreign tourists in recent years, you can eat keskek, rice and chickpeas from the delicious hands of the villagers and drink local sherbets.
Located on the summit route, Sütüven Waterfall and Hasan Boğuldu Pond, where you can visit accompanied by bird chirping and soothing water sounds, are natural wonders. You can be greeted with the smiling face of the Aegean people in this magical area, and you can also buy olive oil, pine and flower honey.
Goose Courtyard, which was formed during the ice age and is a rare geographical structure in the world, is a structure that starts from the peaks of Kaz Mountain and includes Karataş Hill and Kartal Grass, also known as Türkmen Plateau. It is a very interesting formation that looks like a circular stone pile with a diameter of 1 kilometer, giving the feeling of a collapsed wall with a width of 2 meters in places. This structure, which is also the subject of myths, is also associated with Sarıkız. It is believed by the residents to prevent damage to the crop.
Despite being a challenging track, Şahinderesi Canyon in Altınoluk is a frequent destination for travelers and those who want to experience this atmosphere. Şahin Castle, located in the canyon, was built by the people of Antandros to protect them from the Islamic armies.
