Gala Lake

Covering an area of more than 6000 hectares, Gala Lake is one of our natural wonders that every nature lover in Turkey should see. Declared a national park in 2005 to protect its untouched beauties, Gala Lake is one of the most popular destinations for nature walks, camping, bird watching tours, mountain bike trips and photo safaris in Edirne.
