Stage 14 etap 1 - June 7 2026

By Mark · Journey: Cycle Exped to Japan via Finland · 65 km · June 7, 2026

Countries: Türkiye

Yesterday I took a side trip to Safranbolu, a UNESCO world heritage village. Very worthwhile!
Today I will cycle with a lot of height gain from Bartin to Amasra by the black sea coast and then climb again eastwards to Kuruçasile. A small seaside town where I hope to camp. The temperature is up in the 30’s and the way is hilly and more remote for a few days.
