Tunceli Center Car Rental

Tunceli is a small mountain town in eastern Anatolia on the Munzur River, located 170 km west of Elazığ and surrounded by the wild nature of Munzur National Park. With a rental car, you'll explore one of Turkey's least visited and most dramatic mountain landscapes. Tunceli is surrounded by the peaks of the Munzur Mountains, which reach over 3,000 meters and are crossed by clear glacial rivers.

Munzur National Park begins directly west of the town and offers pristine valleys, hot springs, and rich wildlife including the Anatolian leopard. Rent an SUV or a car with high ground clearance - the roads into the national park are uneven and gravel. Fill up your tank in Tunceli city center as gas stations are rare in the mountains.

Visit during June - September for the best weather; mountain passes can be snow-covered October - May. How do I get to Tunceli from the nearest airport? The nearest airport is Elazığ (EZS), approximately 170 km east (2 hours driving).

Book a rental car in Elazığ and drive west via D200. Can I drive to Munzur National Park with a regular car? The main road into the park is passable with a regular car, but side roads to springs and hiking trails require an SUV.

Ask locally about road conditions. What is there to see near Tunceli by car? Munzur Valley and waterfalls (15 km), hot springs near Pelitli (20 km), and Pertek Castle at Keban Dam (60 km) are popular destinations.
