The country boasts fantastic food, gorgeous beaches, rugged mountains and interesting cities all waiting for you to explore. The first EuroVelo route to visit Türkiye is EuroVelo 13 - Iron Curtain Trail, which ends at the Bulgarian-Turkish border after passing through Edirne. Eurovelo 8 - Mediterranean Route in Izmir connects to the ports of Dikili and Cesme via Lesvos and Chios islands and passes through seventeen townships of the city of Izmir. The route is structured with reference to the ancient sites and their interconnection based on natural, cultural and local values connecting the two very important ancient cities Pergamon and Ephesus.
