Yiğilca'dan Yedigöller'e

Yığılca, which contains many beauties such as magnificent honey forests, Hasanlar Dam, Saklıkent and Yoğunpelit Waterfalls, Sarıkaya and Gökçeağaç Caves, is also one of the important destination pillars of our province because it is 35 kilometers from Yedigöller National Park, one of the important tourism values of our country, and has an easy and comfortable transportation network. In order to strengthen the destination network between Düzce and Yığılca, our Governorship has asphalted the 35-kilometer road between Yığılca and Yedigöller, and the road works have been completed by placing direction and hiking trail signs. On the Yığılca-Yedigöller National Park road network, villages and village houses of poetic beauty, cultivated areas, flocks of sheep and lambs, and its rich flora and fauna offer you a peaceful and enjoyable journey.

One of Düzce's important hiking routes, the route between Yığılca and Yedigöller is 35 kilometers and covers Yığılca, Karakaş, Mengen, Yaylatepe, and Yedigöller. The route, which starts on foot from Yığılca, ends upon reaching Yedigöller via Karakaş Village, Mengen Village, and Yaylatepe Village. Those with good fitness, long-distance hiking experience, and route-finding ability can hike in all four seasons. The medium-difficulty route passes through the streamside in the Küçük Melen valley, mountains, villages, and hills, with mixed broadleaf hornbeam, oak, linden, ash, and pine trees.
