37-kilometer lakeside vision

Alemdar said the municipality aims to make the entire shoreline of Lake Sapanca accessible to the public through a comprehensive development project extending 37 kilometers around the lake.

He noted that the project is designed to transform the waterfront into a continuous public living space while preserving the lake's natural environment.

According to Alemdar, construction has made significant progress on the 6-kilometer corridor in Kırkpınar, where the Metropolitan Municipality's Department of Technical Affairs is carrying out works.

The first phase includes landscaped green areas, scenic lakeside seating sections, and public spaces designed to enhance visitors' experience of one of the region's most important natural attractions.

  • Bicycle lanes

  • Landscape improvements

  • Recreational areas

  • Resting points

Once completed, the Sapanca Park Project is expected to create an uninterrupted lakeside recreational corridor, improving public access to Lake Sapanca while supporting tourism, outdoor recreation, and the region's quality of life.
