Elevit Plateau
Elevit Yaylası
A large highland village at the head of the Palovit Valley, with wooden houses along the river. A traditional Highland Festival is held here in summer.
Elevit Plateau sits at about 1,800 meters, upstream in the Palovit Valley. Hundreds of wooden houses line both banks of the stream, making it one of the largest seasonal highland villages in the region. A Highland Festival is held every July, with Black Sea bagpipes and traditional dances. It is about 1.5 hours' drive from Çamlıhemşin, passing Palovit Waterfall. Continuing upward leads to Gito Plateau and Trevit. Guesthouses and restaurants operate in summer.
