Horna Canyon
Horma Canyon is located in the Pınarbaşı district of Kastamonu province. The canyon, which is approximately 100 km from the center of Kastamonu, is 3 km away from the Pınarbaşı district. Ilıca Waterfall is located at the end of Horma Canyon. If you enter the canyon from Pınarbaşı and start your tour, your journey will end at Ilıca Village and Waterfall. If you prefer, you can first go to Ilıca Village, visit Ilıca Waterfall, and then walk through the canyon.
Horma Canyon is one of Turkey's most exciting canyons. Horma Canyon is approximately 3 kilometers long. There is a wooden walking trail inside the canyon. As a result of work that began in 2016, a walking trail was built inside Horma Canyon over approximately 4 years. 270 tons of steel were used in its construction. In addition, 500 cubic meters of wood were used, and strength tests were also carried out.
The Zarı River flows through Horma Canyon. The Zarı River also feeds the Ilıca Waterfall at the end of the canyon. The Zarı River, which forms waterfalls of various sizes in some places, adds harmony to Horma Canyon.
The height of the canyon reaches 200 meters in places. The walking trail is mostly located at a height of about 50-60 meters above the bottom. You do not hike at the bottom of the canyon. Special trekking groups can hike through the canyon at the bottom, but if you are not with a group and do not have a canyon guide, do not attempt such an adventure on your own.
