Lake Sülüklü

Lake Sülüklü extends across the border of Sakarya and Bolu provinces, reaching depths of 35 meters within Sülüklügöl Nature Park.

The lake formed in 1703 when tectonic movements triggered a landslide, creating a water-filled depression that has remained stable for over three centuries.

Local inhabitants maintain traditional knowledge about the lake's trout population, which holds medicinal properties according to regional customs.

Visitors can reach the lake via a 32-kilometer asphalt road from Akyazı to the lake junction, followed by a 9-kilometer dirt path.

The lake contains 183 standing trees that have remained preserved in its waters since its formation, creating an underwater forest frozen in time.
