Davraz sets its sights on year-round sports tourism
A destination meeting explored how Davraz could combine winter sport with high-altitude camps and new international events.
A shared plan for Davraz
Sabah’s report follows a meeting involving the Governor of Isparta, tourism representatives and sports event organisers, including Bilgehan Bakırcıoğlu. The discussion focused on how Davraz could build a stronger identity as a sports destination.
Beyond the winter season
The mountain’s altitude creates potential for training camps as well as established winter activities. Snow volleyball was among the event ideas discussed, while warmer months offered opportunities for teams seeking high-altitude preparation.
Coordination creates a year-round destination
The central theme was continuity: public bodies, tourism businesses and sports specialists working together so the destination can welcome athletes throughout the year. That joined-up approach is essential when developing an emerging sports tourism region.
