Torul glass terrace
Glass viewing terrace over the Harşit valley in Torul, Gümüşhane.
The Torul glass terrace projects out over a deep, forested valley, giving guests a striking view straight down to the river below. It is the first photo stop on the classic Zigana day.
Just beyond the Zigana tunnel in Gümüşhane province, it is also close to Karaca Cave, so the two are often linked.
- →Small entry fee; queues form at midday in summer.
- →Not recommended for guests with a fear of heights — the valley view can be enjoyed from the side platform.
