With the road opened as a result of the work we carried out in cooperation with our General Directorate of Forestry in Yoroz, we facilitated the first aid interventions in case of emergency and the intervention of the fire brigade against fires. At the same time, we brought this road opened to bicycle safari tour activities. In addition, we have turned Yoroz into an adventure space, a place where you can spend pleasant times with your family, with the improvement of walking paths, stairs and sitting benches.
Now we bring Yoroz to mountaineering and rock climbing. In this sense, we will increase the attractiveness of our army by bringing the necessary teams to examine and the tracks to be determined by the professional teams under the name of Yoroz Climbing Track.
