Hidirnebi Plateau

A quiet highland viewpoint above Akcaabat for a short walk and a change of air.

Suggested time: 150 min

Know before you go

Hidirnebi is a highland stop reached through Akcaabat. Visit for the open views, an unhurried short walk and cooler mountain air rather than a fixed list of attractions. Fog can hide the panorama quickly; do not drive higher simply to chase a view.

Official Trabzon tourism pages list 1,600 metres for the plateau and 1,742 metres for the Hidirnebi-Kurucam highland area. These may describe different points. Nearby Kurucam can be a second stop when visibility and road conditions allow.

Do not assume food or accommodation businesses are open on your travel date. Carry water and an extra layer, and leave more time for parking and the return drive on festival days or busy weekends.

What you will see

Short, safe highland walk
Nearby Kurucam when conditions permit

Coastal sun does not guarantee a clear plateau

Hıdırnebi and Kuruçam are featured together in Trabzon’s official plateau information.

Planning suggestion: Choose a short walk or meal according to visibility. Allow separate time for Çal Cave rather than extending the drive in search of a hidden view.
