Trail description
A 1.2 km walk of about 60 m of climbing on Boztepe, the hill 3 km south-east of the centre of Trabzon, ancient Mount Minthrion. The hill has been sacred since antiquity and has four holy fountains, one of them near the summit by a mosque that was a 19th-century church. The Kaymakli quarter covers most of the hill.
