Şenyuva Bridge

Şenyuva Köprüsü

A single-arch Ottoman stone bridge completed in 1696 that spans the Fırtına River. It is the best-known and most photogenic old bridge in the valley.

Şenyuva Bridge is in Şenyuva village, about 6 km south of Çamlıhemşin. It is recorded as built in 1696. Its tall, single arch, slender and graceful, spans the swift Fırtına River, with dense forest and wooden houses on the hillsides around it. The road to Zilkale passes right beside the bridge, so you can park and walk onto it for photos. Nearby are riverside trout restaurants and rafting launch points, and it is often visited together with Zilkale.
