Çaykara and Uzungöl form Trabzon’s best-known inland tourist route. The road locks up at weekends and during holidays, and in winter ice, chains and fog are added to the mix. Calls come from local drivers and from visitors alike. Our crew gets the car onto the flatbed quickly.
Season and parking recoveries in the centre
Around the centre of Çaykara, parking violations and narrow-street recoveries rise during the busy season. The winch cable is attached to the tow eye and the wheels roll up the ramps onto the bed. Once the car is loaded safely, the road reopens sooner. There is no holiday surcharge for visitors stranded at night.
Bends and blocked lanes on the Uzungöl road
The Uzungöl road is narrow and winding, and blocking a lane for long is dangerous. Our crew gets the car onto the bed without dragging it. Cars caught on the climb without chains fall under the same service. The price depends on whether you are in Uzungöl or the town centre, and we tell you clearly on the call.
Peak crowds in Uzungöl itself
Uzungöl can lock up at weekends and during holidays. Writing “by the lake / at the entrance / in front of the hotel” on WhatsApp is enough. Our crew loads onto the flatbed and motorcycles are strapped down. Coming down to the coast via Of is usually the safest route.
Down to the coast via the Of turn-off
Coming down to the coast via the Of turn-off is the backbone of the delivery plan. Transport from Çaykara to a garage in Of, Sürmene or Ortahisar is agreed by distance. The figure we agree is the one that applies.
What to expect on timing in Çaykara
Inland and on the tourist route, arrival depends on the road, the weather and the season; we give you an estimate on the call.
The Çaykara line: 0462 606 06 21. “Uzungöl entrance / by the lake / Çaykara town” is enough; Trabzon Çekicim answers 24/7.
