Golden Rule: Acclimatization
The time spent at campsites before the summit day is critical for your body to adapt to low oxygen. Fluid intake and following guide instructions are keys to success.

A Journey to the Roof of the Black Sea

The Kackar Mountains are the most magnificent representatives of the Alpine-Himalayan belt in Turkey. Reaching an altitude of 3,937 meters, this range is not just a climbing route; it is a journey of will where physical limits are pushed and the sunrise is witnessed from above the sea of clouds. Led by professional mountain guides, our Summit Expeditions are designed for adventurers who want to encounter nature in its purest and most rugged form.

Giants of the Kackars: Routes and Summits

Kackar Kavrun Summit (3,937m): The highest point of the region. The classic route, usually undertaken via the Dilberduzu campsite, requires high endurance and determination rather than technical climbing. Once you reach the summit, the entire Black Sea range lies beneath your feet.

Vercenik and Altiparmak: Known for their more technical and fierce structures, these peaks offer a true alpinist experience. These routes, which include rock climbing sections, are navigated with professional equipment and expert guidance.

Technical Preparation and Safety

Summit climbs require high-altitude experience. Adapting to oxygen levels above 3,000 meters (acclimatization) is the key to success. Technical equipment such as layered clothing, professional mountaineering boots, and headlamps are vital throughout the climb. Since weather conditions at the summit can change instantly, the entire operation is managed by the real-time decisions of our experienced guides.
