What makes this place unique

About

Housing both broad-leaved and coniferous tree species, the Kurucaşile Forests have supplied the timber needs of the local shipyards for centuries.

Terrain, waters and landscape

Forest

This rich ecosystem, dominated by oak, beech, hornbeam, and chestnut trees, covers a large part of the Kurucaşile geography. The forest structure provides the durable wood that is critical for the wooden boatbuilding art ongoing since the Ottoman era. You can study the distribution and topography of the forested areas via the Harita to better understand the wealth of Bartın nature.
