Where the wild things are ud83dudef5ud83dudca8ud83dudd25ud83eudd18nnSpending the day riding with my boys Matt and Kenny was awesome! We were going up through this national park's trails until we found out it was a military zone... We spent the day exploring this entire peninsula and eventually made our escape undetected from the military police on the other side of this beautiful national nature reserve ud83eudd23ud83dude02ud83dude48nnWhile we were tearing up these super sweet trails we met a group of local Turkish guys breaking the curfew laws with their noble steeds. It was super good to catch up with these guys and watch them tear up the mountainside as they took off ud83cudf89ud83cudf89ud83cudf89nnFantastic weather and great trails made this day really special sharing it with the buddies while we were on the bikes ud83dudca5ud83cuddf9ud83cuddf7ud83dudca5

A very nice and clean place. Thr entrance was 21tl for a car or 7tl for a bycicle. There are many beaches where you can stay, but I would recommend to get there as soon as they open the park (9am) so you can choose a spot with plenty of shade all day long. Many wild pigs around, but they are harmless. No fire alowed inside. Closses at 7pm.

Dilek Peninsula-Büyük Menderes Delta National Park (Turkish: Dilek Yarımadası-Büyük Menderes Deltası Millî Parkı), established on May 19, 1966, is a national park in western Turkey. It contains within its borders the entirety of the Dilek Peninsula as well as the large delta of the Büyük Menderes River. The park is located in the Kuşadası district of Aydın Province — part of Turkey's Aegean Region. Directly west of the national park is the small coastal town of Güzelçamlı, where several shuttle buses and ferries operate to and from the district's center of Kuşadası, approximately 30 km (19 mi) from the park.nThe park is the most visited during the spring and summer months, when it is open between 8:00 and 19:00 (7:00 pm) local time. In autumn and winter, it closes at 17:00 (5:00 pm). Admission must be paid at the entrance. Camping, lighting fires, or setting up overnight shelters are strictly forbidden within the limits of the national park in order to protect the surrounding ecosystem. The park can be reached from the city center of Kuşadası via several dolmuş (share taxis) that regularly shuttle the route to the closest town of Güzelçamlı. Recently, there have also been ferry boat services operating back and forth between Kuşadası and Güzelçamlı, in turn providing easier access to the park for visitors. Each year, around 700,000 foreign and domestic tourists visit the park

Jandarma closed most off the park, expect use only first 15 km starting from Kusadasi

Beautiful place, clean water, pines on the beach. Best place of Kusadasi to come and feel the nature. Recommend.
