Pokut Plateau
Pokut Plateau stands on high mountains, being 2.050 meters high from the sea level and 21 kilometers away from the Çamlıhemşin district. Even though it looks near to Çamlıhemşin district, because of its rugged path, it takes almost 2 hours to reach to plateau. The word Pokut comes from Armenian, meaning “Windy valley”. Even if it is not exactly known when the very first settlement has been made, it is estimated 200 years ago. Being a small plateau, it has only about 70-80 houses. Some of them serves as a hostel. Pokut Plateau is known as the best terrace of Kaçkar Mountains. It is one of the most beautiful sight-seeing places in the whole Black Sea Region. By making a walking about 15-20 minutes, you can also reach another great place, Sal Plateau.
