Quoting Trudy

 

 

 But isn´t it a little too close to the border with Iraq, Kurt? Isn´t that dangerous?

Shame on you Trudy. Are you scared to mix with real people?

 

I had once adviced you guys that the proper thing to do when you see uniformed soldiers approachimg is to wave your arms and greet them by shouting "Biji Apo ! ". Alternatively, if you come across hunters in guerilla outfits, simply holler "Kahrolsun PKK ! " and remain still.

 

My advice still holds. Super cool

I hope it is not late for me to have some questions about Hakkari region too

I want to visit that region with my father during out tour of Turkey on bicycle, we are sleeping under the tent on place where we finish that evening.

We want to visit mountains close to Hakkari

I want to ask you if there are some movement restrictions for foreigners (tourists) if is possible to get small roads to high mountains without problems with Jandarma. I heard that there is lot of controls from Jandarma. I want to know if there are some restricted areas. Or it is depended only on mood of Jandarma which we will met.

I have no fear from some inhabitants or some Kurdish people there beacuse Turkish people was best think I ever met when we was just in Turkey this year and last year.They are very cheerfull and nice with us. Even some Jandarma control we just met was OK.

But exactly I would regrats if Jandarma do not let us visit some mountains.

That part of way which I am interested in is Tatvan-Hizan-Bahcesaray-Gurpinar-Geziyurt-Ordekli-Tatli-Dibekli-Akocak-Kolbasi-Kirikdag(there we want to take road to cilo mountains)-Hakkari-Yoncali-Uzungecit-Baglica-SIrnak

During that we want to visit even some mountains part by foot e.g. Bercelan, during way between Gurpinar and Hakkari http://www.panoramio.com/photo/6141747
this valley in cilo mountains http://www.panoramio.com/photo/6141688

If someone know that or can discover how is it with that I would be beholden to you.

 

Thanks a lot

A quick search on the internet reveals terrorist activity is still going strong in Hakkari and the venue is invariably the mountains of Hakkari. Traveling to those mountains on bicycle would be asking for trouble. It is dangerous to say the least. You might fall victim to a sniper or a stray bullet.

I understand everyone is entitled to traveling to any part of the world but that would sometimes be impossible in practice. I would suggest Cappadocia or Nemrut as two excellent alternatives. In Cappadocia you could trace the roots of the first Christians who fled from torture and oppression. You could visit the ancient underground dwellings that extend for kilometers through 7-9 stories of galleries carved through soft stone. Nemrut happens to be the cradle of the Kommogene civilization and the giant king head sculptures remained from them. They say Nemrut is one of the best places to watch the sunrise or the sunset. Incidentally, Seytansofrasi in Ayvalik is another excellent place for sunset watchers.

Good luck.
