Gölyayla - Kabahor Gölyayla Yaylası
🇹🇷 Rize · Türkiye — Altitude 1760 m
This live camera looks out over the Gölyayla plateau at about 1,760 metres in Rize province, on the Black Sea side of northeastern Turkey. It is a useful window for anyone curious about high pasture conditions in the Kaçkar foothills. The page adds local time and a forecast so you can judge what the weather is doing up on the plateau.
Gölyayla sits in the high yayla country of the Kaçkar Mountains, where villages in the valleys move their herds and households up to summer pastures. The Black Sea region is known for steep green slopes, tea gardens lower down and frequent rain, and the plateau is part of that rhythm. The landscape is open grassland framed by forested ridges and distant peaks. Visitors often come to walk, picnic and experience the traditional highland life that has shaped the area for generations.
Because this is a mountain plateau stream, the view is mainly about open sky, grass, cloud and changing light. Depending on the view, you may see mist moving over the ridges, herds grazing, or sunlight breaking through after rain. Mornings often bring clearer air before clouds build up in the afternoon. Watching during a change in weather can be especially interesting, since conditions at this altitude can shift quickly.
Summer is the usual season for the plateau, when the grass is green and the access roads are generally open, though conditions depend on snow and weather. Expect cool temperatures even in warmer months and bring layers. Other cameras in the wider area include Golyayla, about 1 km away, and Uzungöl at around 29 km, which is a well-known lake in the same mountain region. Hayrat and Çaykara are also within about 35 km.
