Descrizione
The Kizil Irmak River (Red River) is a long Turkish river that flows 1150 km from the Central Anatolian Plateau to the Black Sea. 14 kilometres from the town of Göreme in Cappadocia you can find a beautiful birdingplace on the Kizil Irmak. Where the river branches off in a bend, there is a small peninsula, some sandbanks and small lakes. Here it is teeming with birds. From Usignolo di fiume to Pendolino, from Casarca to Tortora selvatica. But also Cannareccione and Cannaiola, Nitticora, Tuffetto and Airone rosso. You can also find the Cuculo dal ciuffo and if you are very lucky Ghiandaia marina here. No birders in sight, because this place is hardly known.
Dettagli
Accesso
Park along the road. In the first bushes you encounter in front of the water you will find countless Usignolo di fiume. They show themselves here like they never do in western Europe. This is also the place where you can see Pendolino. After you pass the bushes walk on to the peninsula and explore the riverside and pools.

Please note: this is an area where many sheep herds and goat herds roam. These herds in Turkey are often guarded by large dogs that must protect the herds against wolves. Therefore always keep your distance from the herds, and don't enter the peninsula if there is a sheep herd on the spot, because these dogs are pretty terrifying.
