Narman Fairy Chimneys
Narman Peribacaları
A landscape of red earth pillars about 70 km northeast, shaped like flames and castles and known as the “Red Cappadocia” of Eastern Anatolia.
Red sandstone and mudstone around Narman District have been shaped by wind and rain into continuous spires, walls, and gullies, ranging in color from orange-red to deep ochre, which stand out vividly against the blue sky. The viewpoint has walking paths and a café, offering a view over the entire red landscape. It is about an hour’s drive from Erzurum, and public transport is limited, so a rental car or a private driver is recommended. It can be combined with the Tortum route to make a loop.
