Day 6: Driving and Hiking. Thirty kilometres before Bodrum on the road from Milas there is the turn on the left to Gökçeler. One km after the village of Gökçeler you get to the Uyku Vadisi (Degirmenderesi), the Sleeping Valley. The road is frequently cut by the running stream and you have to get cross it. But in summer this path might be fun to take. The second route is the road that turns to left into the forest after you travel one kilometre out of the village. After the turn you drive for two kilometres to get to Degirmenderesi. Those who follow the flowing water trail will, after going one kilometre with a bit of climbing, get to the Gökçeler Cave.
The mouth of the cave is quite wide. It opens onto a wider hall in the beginning. To the left there is a large gallery. It is called the Bat Gallery due to many the bats that live there. Dont cast a light over them as they scare easily and will take flight. When you walk a bit to the right through a narrow area you come to the gallery of small lakes, stalactites and stalagmites. Everyone can get as far as this point. The rest is for the professional potholers. With the guides you go down seven metres on a rope and come to a wider gallery, with some of your progress made by sliding on the ground or kneeling down to get to the end of the cave. Your return is the same and there is no other exit this way. In summer do not forget to get your swimming costume as you will want to dip into the cool waters.
Day 7: Today we will drive to cozy village and have a nice barbeque for lunch. Free afternoon.
