Description

Sector Kizilkaya a fun south facing sector that contains 7+ routes with grades that range from 7+/8- to open projects. This cliff face provides excellent vertical climbing with the occasional over hanging feature. Strong fingers on small crimps is the magic combination to make it through most the cruxes. The bolting is user-friendly so bring lots of quickdraws be prepared for a great time.

Access issues inherited from Şahinkaya Tırmanış Bahçesi

Sector Doğankaya is located on a south, southwest facing portion of cliff, directly above the two gazebos. Park at the trailhead with a trash receptacle on the third switch corner as you head up hill. Follow an excellent dirt hiking trail for 200 meters until you arrive at the picnic area built by the town and municipality.

Approach

Sector Kizilkaya is located about 250 meters (3.5 minute walk) beyond the gazebos. The wall is clearly visible from the approach Trail.

Ethic inherited from Şahinkaya Tırmanış Bahçesi

There are no restrictions aside from respecting the environment as the local district and administrators have been very tolerant and we don't want that to change. All bolting is stainless steel and not more than 20 years old. Most of the routes (More than %90 ) was opened in the last three years and visitors are welcome to contribute to that with local advice.
