Çal Cave
Çal Mağarası
A long cave with an underground river, where visitors can follow a walkway about 1 km into the cave to a small waterfall.
Çal Cave lies in Düzköy District. Its surveyed length is about 8 km, making it one of the longer caves in the world, but only about 1 km is currently open to visitors. Inside are an underground river and a small waterfall. Following the metal walkway, you hear water echoing through the passages, which gives a real sense of adventure. The cave is damp and cold, so wear non-slip shoes and bring a jacket. About 45 km from Trabzon, it pairs well with Hıdırnebi Plateau or Sera Lake.
