The beginning of the route is in Köprülü Canyon (literally means “canyon with bridge”) National Park. The park takes its name from the ancient Roman Bridge built over the canyon. The canyon is 400 m deep and stretches 14 km along the Köprüçay River. We start our ride in front of the Perge Pension which is a trout farm by a cascading spring by the Köprüçay River. You ride over the Roman Bridge and follow the twisting mountain roads all the way up to the St Paul Pension at Kasimlar Village. Interesting rock formations and layers enriches your cycling experience during the entire ride. You reverse this route from Kasımlar to Karabük village.
