Nature / Yayla (highland pasture)
Kozak Yaylası
Bergama, İzmir
A cool yayla between Bergama and Ayvalık, known for its stone pine forests, granite rocks and weaving villages.
Its story
Kozak is a broad plateau rising between 500–1000 meters above sea level and covering more than twenty villages. Stone pine forests are the basis of the yayla's economy; the geographically indicated Bergama Kozak pine nut comes from here. Traditional carpet and kilim weaving continues in the villages. There are walking and cycling routes among the granite rock formations.
