Mokissos (Helvadere Village) – Süt Church -1950m Camp

The Character of the Route:

Starting from the entire ancient city of Mokissos, which includes churches, monasteries, and thousands of buildings, the route leads to paths in greenery, leaving behind the ruins bearing the signature of Roman Emperor Justinus, who also rebuilt Hagia Sophia. When he comes to the open field at 6 km, he visits the Byzantine Period Milk Church with an altitude of 1850 m, which is also used as a camping place by mountaineers. From this point, it follows the path that gets steeper and ends next to the hotel, which is the only new building at an altitude of 1950 m.

Notes to Travelers:

• To do mountain climbing, you must have the right climbing equipment and have been trained.
• To be able to climb mountains, you must be in good health and condition.
• The water well adjacent to the milk church does not seem very safe to drink. Teams going here should take their water with them.
• A potable water source can be found within 30 minutes' walking distance from the camping area on the mountain climbing path.
• Do not forget to take enough water and light food to give energy.
• Make sure your phone is fully charged before you start climbing.
• Do not forget to drink water from time to time during the climb.
