Mt. Emler Summit Ascend hakkında.

This time, we are heading to a summit we visit every year. We will organize an event ideal for those preparing for high-altitude experiences. If your interest lies in climbing to high places and engaging in long hikes, or if you want to gain experience or acclimate to higher altitudes, this climb is perfect for you.

Just like all our climbs, we are going to this summit with an extremely competent leadership team and excellent climbing services. Despite being one of the highest peaks in the Aladağlar range, Emler Dağı is a mountain that can be reached by following a relatively easy but long route. It is one of the largest in the Aladağlar range, and its view is quite impressive. You can see not only the surrounding villages and plateaus from a bird’s eye view but also the wild Yedigöller plateau and the highest peaks of the Aladağlar range.

During this climb, we will set up our camp just below one of the highest passes in the Aladağlar range at an altitude of approximately 3400 meters. This high camp allows you to acclimatize to higher altitudes, increase your camping experience at high altitudes, get to know yourself at safe heights before tackling larger peaks, and test yourself.

This climb is open to all participants aged 16 and older who want to gain experience and/or enjoy a pleasant climb, accompanied by experienced tour leaders. Please contact us to inquire about your suitability for such activities and to receive information and advice.

We recommend securing your reservation quickly.

Day 1: Departure from Ankara by private vehicle. Transfer to Demirkazık – Sokullupınar. Ascent to the camp.

Recommended Items and Suggestions for Camping Tours in Aladağlar:

Travel Bag: Use a sufficiently large bag for carrying your belongings during intercity travels. Please avoid hard suitcases for nature tours, as they can be problematic when loading into vehicles, carrying in the camp area, and placing inside the tent. Soft sports bags, backpacks, and similar types are suitable for this travel. During activities where we need to carry our camp load to the campsites, please bring backpacks with appropriate volume, comfort, and safety features.

Backpack: It is important that your backpack is large enough to carry the items you will need during the activity on a given day. We do not recommend carrying items in your hands or outside the backpack during nature walks. Therefore, medium-sized backpacks with a volume of 30-45 liters are the most suitable for such activities. Rain cover bag cases, which are now standard in many backpacks, are also an important detail needed in rainy weather. If your backpack does not have a rain cover, we recommend getting one additionally.

Sleeping Bag: We recommend bringing a sleeping bag suitable for seasonal conditions for your health and comfort. You can consult with us regarding the current weather conditions in the region, general climate conditions, and things to consider when buying a sleeping bag.

Hiking Boots with Sturdy Soles: For your health, please do not walk in the field for a long time with very flexible and soft-soled shoes. If you are a steady walker, we recommend getting trekking boots designed for walking in nature with a stiff and orthopedic sole. It is worth noting that water resistance is a sought-after feature in hiking boots, especially during rainy seasons.

Spare Sports Shoes: We recommend bringing an extra pair of shoes for comfort during journeys and as a spare pair of shoes after walking. You can leave them in the vehicle or at the camp during walking tours.

Socks: It is always more comfortable and healthy to walk with synthetic trekking socks with supported soles and toe tips. We recommend having an extra pair of socks with you on all walks.

Gloves and Hat: It is important to have gloves and a hat with you in cold weather. In nature tours, choose hats that cover your ears. In the mountains and tours at high altitudes, it is advisable to have both a hat and gloves even in the summer months.

Cap: We recommend having a cap with a brim, preferably one that protects your neck from the sun, all year round. Bandanas and buff-like materials are also among the recommendations for all seasons.

Raincoat: We especially recommend using lightweight, breathable, and reasonably rainproof raincoats or anoraks. Anoraks should always be with us during autumn-winter seasons and spring walks. We highly prefer Gore Tex or similar materials for raincoat anoraks, as they release the steam from your body, significantly preventing sweating from the inside, and are also very waterproof.

Polar Jacket and Warming Clothes: We recommend polar jackets and half-zip polar sweatshirts as they are light, do not tend to hold moisture, and are among the recommended types of warming clothes for outdoor activities. Woolen clothes are not very suitable for outdoor activities. Fiber-filled anoraks are both heavy and take up a lot of space. Therefore, polar clothes worn under a breathable raincoat/anorak are always preferred for their comfort and lightness.

Pants and Shorts: We recommend using synthetic or semi-synthetic trekking pants for walks. Clothing made of cotton, linen, and similar materials is not suitable for nature activities as they make movement difficult and do not dry quickly when wet. We generally do not recommend shorts and short clothes for walks as they do not protect you from scratches and minor injuries in rugged terrain or trails with dense vegetation.

Beverages: During hiking tours, it is highly recommended to carry 1.5 – 2 liters of water. Avoid sugary drinks as they can increase dehydration over time. Depending on your preference, you can also bring some of your beverages in a thermos as a hot drink. Especially during the fall-winter seasons and mountain tours at high altitudes, carrying a hot drink is strongly recommended.

Thermos: It is recommended to have a thermos, preferably made of steel or plastic (excluding glass interiors). This allows you to carry hot drinks with you, especially during activities away from the campsite.

Camera: For our tours, we suggest bringing a camera along with spare film or memory cards and batteries. If there is an expectation of passing through wet environments or rainy weather, remember to take the necessary precautions to protect your cameras.

Sunglasses: UV-protective sunglasses are preferred for outdoor activities. Especially on snowy winter days, sunglasses are crucial as they provide the only defense against retinal burns or snow blindness due to excessive radiation.

Protective Sunscreen, Moisturizers, and Lipstick: We recommend high-protection sunscreen with a minimum factor of 45 for all seasons. Additionally, it’s advisable to bring moisturizers and lipstick to protect your skin from harsh weather conditions.

First Aid and Medication: MONTIS Trips & Expeditions guides always carry comprehensive first aid kits. All our tour leaders are certified with the International Wilderness First Aid (ECSII) certification. However, it is recommended to carry your regularly used medications and a personal small first aid kit with you at all times. Feel free to contact us for more extensive information on the selection of materials to bring for activities.

Environmental Note: We leave no waste or permanent traces in nature; therefore, remember that everything you bring for hiking tours should be taken back after use. To transport your waste back, you can bring a small trash bag or use empty plastic bags to dispose of your trash.

Technical Climbing Equipment: We provide technical equipment free of charge. If you prefer to use your technical equipment for reasons such as comfort, safety, health, or personal habits, please inquire about the quantities and types of equipment during the reservation process.

Technical Equipment Needed for This Tour:

  • Helmet
