14-16 March 2025

Rize / Artvin

We are waiting for you on our trip to witness the birth of goats accompanied by shepherds at the foothills of the Kaçkar Mountains and to experience a Black Sea story.

​

Day 1 Friday, March 14, 2025

In the morning, we will visit our first herd after a delicious breakfast with our guests we welcomed from the Rize-Artvin airport. The care the shepherd family, who are waiting for us with their hospitality, shows to their goats and kids will fascinate us all. When we return to our accommodation, a dinner by the fire will be waiting for us. In the evening of the first day, we will watch a pleasant documentary about goat farming. 55-year-old shepherd Yetişan İnce will accompany us in our conversation and tour.

​

Day 2 Saturday, March 15, 2025

After breakfast at our accommodation, we will set off towards our goat herd. This time, after reaching our herd in the Papuzeni hamlet in the Fındıklı district of Rize, we will meet our host shepherd. Throughout the journey of the herd, our shepherd will guide us with his knowledge and stories. And while herding our herd, we will learn the tricks of nature observation, which is an essential part of shepherding. Since we will be on the move all day long and in a mountainous area, our lunch will be in the form of food parcels today, but the taste is guaranteed. Perhaps the most enjoyable time of the day will begin when we return to the barns. Watching the goats, who have been waiting for their mothers all day, running to reunite with their mothers will give us insatiable moments. After our goats have fed themselves with breast milk, it will be time to pet these sweet babies. We will connect the enjoyable time spent with the goats and goats to an evening with a tulum recital, horon workshop and atma folk song workshop. Our evening conversations will be accompanied by traditional methods of wool spinning tools and stories. We will end our day with an evening of conversation accompanied by traditional desserts and snacks.

​

Day 3 Sunday, March 16, 2025

After breakfast at our accommodation, we will bid farewell to our accommodation, witness the birth of a baby goat, accompany the herd, chat about goat farming and go on nature walks. After a break where we will taste traditional Eastern Black Sea dishes, we will set off to reach the airport.
