- 5.0 Kop Dagi Mudafasi Tarihi Milli Parki (4 reviews)
-Ne Canlar
Spent More than 3 hours National Parks • Nature & Wildlife Areas
Bayburt Erzurum yolu üzerinde. Kop dağı 1. Dünya Savaşı sırasında önemli bir rol oynuyor. Dağda şehitler adına bir abide yapılmış. 1916 yılında Ruslara karşı direnen şehitler adına yükselen abide 2409m rakımda çok uzaklardan görülüyor. İnsan duygulanıyor. Ne canlar gitmiş vatan uğruna. Atatürk heykeli taa uzaklardan fark ediliyor. See more..

- 4.5 Baksi Museum (34 reviews)
-Far away from the city center but a must-see
Speciality Museums
This is a museum which is a gem for all the region. Founded by an altruistic art historian as a tribute to his birthplace it contains invaluable ethnographic details. Besides, it is a case of design and architecture. Its location is majestic. I haven't tried its guest house but I assume one can spend some time here in this magical site to do some intellectual or artwork. See more..
- 4.0 Bayburt Kalesi (32 reviews)
-Imposing castle overlooking the city of Bayburt
Castles
Bayburt Castle dominates the city and gives extensive views over the surrounding grasslands and rolling hills. Çoruh River runs through the city of Bayburt, and then around the base of the hill on which the castle stands. There is no evidence of the homes of the 3000 people who lived here in the past. The castle was inhabited until 1829 when it was destroyed by Russians. There had been dwellings on the site since 3000 BC. The huge castle walls standing today were built between 1200 and 1230. Entry is free. There is a car park. Route to the castle is signposted for walking and driving. Paths in the castle are uneven and in parts steep. See more..

- 4.0 Coruh River (8 reviews)
-Major river in magnificent scenery
Bodies of Water
One of the fastest running rivers in Turkey, Çoruh River runs through spectacular scenery from it's source in the Mescit Mountains to the Black Sea near Batumi, across the border in Georgia. In Bayburt the river is enclosed in a concrete culvert and the parkland on the banks does little to improve the appearance, but does give a place for a drink looking at the water. After flowing around the base of Bayburt castle hill the Çoruh heads out though the mountains in a series of valleys, canyons and waterfalls. The river can be followed on the road from Bayburt to Ispir and gives great views for much of the way. See more..
