Kadriye Quarter located at the Southern edge of Nilüfer district is the settlement with the highest altitude of the region (750 m.). The settlement, which was founded after the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878 by refugees from the region of İslimiye (Sliven) of Bulgaria, is also known among locals as Karaören (Black Ruins), due to the historic remains located in its surroundings.
Kadriye, which can be reached by asphalt road via the Atlas Quarter, is at a distance of 29 kilometres from the city centre and at 1 kilometre distance from the limits between Nilüfer and Orhaneli districts. Hiking and cycling routes, apart from Trans Mysia trails, linking Misi to Gölyazı quarters, also pass from Kadriye. One can enter the 8 kilometres long trail connecting Kadriye to İnegazi Quarter via Deliktaş Cave, from the street advancing 150 metres above Kadriye Quarter mosque. The trail follows for approximately 500 metres the same path with Trans Mysia Trail 3.
After the first deviation, the unpaved road turning to the right passes from İncirli Burun Ridge. In the valley located on the left of the ridge line, there flows Tütüncük Stream, which is the source of the Yaylacık Stream. The trail starts at an altitude of 750 metres, crosses a densely-forested area and advances for 2,5 kilometres on the ridge line before it descends to the picnic area in front of the huge opening of Deliktaş Cave.
On the left of the entrance to the picnic area, follow the asphalt road leading to Üçpınar Quarter. After 500 metres turn towards the right at the point of the direction signs, in order to enter the second part of the trail. After 3,7 kilometres the path merging with Hiking Trail P11 coming from Üçpınar, continues to descend after Yaylacık Stream towards Bediristan Ridge. The path after passing from Karakiraz Stream, turns towards the right, next to the horse farm, before it enters the asphalt road and reaches after 500 metres İnegazi Quarter central square.
