Description

İşkizma is a fun south and west facing sector that contains 14 (9 at the left side and 5 at right) routes with grades that range from 6 to 9+. Shade can be enjoy on numerous routes until the early afternoon. This cliff face provides excellent vertical climbing with the occasional over hanging feature. The bolting is user-friendly and the route lengths are normally under 30 meters making it a good location for a 60 m rope to be utilized.

Access issues inherited from Şahinkaya Tırmanış Bahçesi

Sector Doğankaya is located on a south, southwest facing portion of cliff, directly above the two gazebos. Park at the trailhead with a trash receptacle on the third switch corner as you head up hill. Follow an excellent dirt hiking trail for 200 meters until you arrive at the picnic area built by the town and municipality.

Approach

İşkizma is located 130 meters (2 minutes walk) beyond the gazebos. Follow a very well established Trail along the base of the cliff to access this sector.

Ethic inherited from Şahinkaya Tırmanış Bahçesi

There are no restrictions aside from respecting the environment as the local district and administrators have been very tolerant and we don't want that to change. All bolting is stainless steel and not more than 20 years old. Most of the routes (More than %90 ) was opened in the last three years and visitors are welcome to contribute to that with local advice.
