Sera Lake
Sera Gölü
A small lake in a mountain valley west of the city, with a lakeside wooden trail and cafés, popular with locals for weekend strolls.
Sera Lake lies about 15 km west of Trabzon, in the direction of Akçaabat. Formed when a landslide blocked a stream, it is surrounded by lush green slopes. A lakeside path and wooden boardwalk run around it; a full loop takes about 30 minutes. Cafés and restaurants on the shore let you sit with a cup of tea and watch the water. Close to both the airport and the city center, it makes a relaxed half-day outing and pairs well with a visit to Atatürk Villa or a meatball lunch in Akçaabat.
