You can set your tent on the shore of the Güngören Pond located 1,5 kilometres in the South-East of the settlement. üngören is a crowded lively quarter.
Hiking Trail P15, divided into two parts, starts next to the village cemetery. The asphalt by-road descending to Kuruçeşme Quarter advances for 1 kilometre among fields and then passes below Kayrak and Bağlık Hills. The road leading to Kuruçeşme descends with a slight slope crossing a forest area dominated by pine and oak tree woods, while after 3 kilometres it reaches the old yoruk village of Kuruçeşme.
For the second part of the trail you have two choices before you: Either to walk towards the East starting at the point of the direction signs on the asphalt road descending from Güngören on the upper part of the village, or to advance towards the East via the cycling route passing below the children’s playground below Kuruçeşme Quarter. The two roads merge after 1,2 kilometres. The path turning towards the North at the point of the direction signs on the unpaved road, descends from Çatlarla Ridge inside the valley parallelly to Bostanlı Stream. From the direction signs below Kuruçeşme, the 6,4 kilometres long trail towards Kayapa Quarter advances on the ridge line on the left of Kayapa Pond. After it reaches flat ground the track passes from Güngörmez Stream and then turns towards the West before it ends in the centre of Kayapa Quarter.
