Olympos Climbing - KadirsTreeHouse
If you are interested in climbing and want to develop your skills, like to communicate with people and attach them to this wonderful sport, this is a place for you.
Kadir Kaya, the founder of Kadir’s Tree houses, came to this area 31 years ago when there was no electricity. He lived like Robinson Crusoe his life and managed with many difficulties to bring the place to this day. Serving a few home guests 31 years ago, Kadir’s Tree houses are a facility that can serve 260 people today, with 100 Bungalows, 10 cabins and 4 crowded rooms.

About the experience in: Yazır, Olympos, Turkey

I had an amazing experience at Kadir’s. Eugene was a great climbing teacher to work with and a kind man. I felt that the volunteer experience was very rewarding and the community surrounding this place is one-of-a-kind.

This was by far one of my favorite traveling experiences. Eugene is a very patient and thorough guide. I came with less experience but felt very confident in the work required of me. I felt encouraged to improve my climbing and also just to enjoy Olympos. I miss it already and hope for the chance to come back again!!

Eugene was amazing and the climbing was so good. I came with less experience and this was a great way to massively improve my climbing skills. I got sick during my stay and Eugene was so lovely and very understanding. It felt very relaxed and even when I got things a bit wrong I felt like I was encouraged to learn how to improve rather than being told off. I have no complaints about the climbing and Eugene as a host. However, the hostel had some issues with the poor treatment of volunteers working in the working in the restaurant area, I also would not want to be here without other volunteers.

I worked with Eugene in kadirstreehouses.
Eugene is a strict but great teacher when it comes to sports climbing. The way he teaches you makes you never forget the experience. I had a great time with him and also the other volunteers. My time was filled with activities and action and I loved it.
The rooms can be better or worse … in German we say: man ist sein Glückes Schmied, so please just speak to the manager if you need anything!
Eugene might be strict as I said but as long as you can stay focused at work he can be one of the best friends and mentors and maybe your guides you ever had :)

I feel really grateful for this experience at Olympos. The work (which included belaying, carrying equipment and cleaning routes) didn’t feel like work. I learned so much from Eugene and he also gave me the opportunity to improve my climbing. The natural landscapes of the place -including the climbing sites- are beautiful. There are more volunteers at the hostel and the whole team is fun and very friendly. I had so much fun and couldn’t recommend more this experience.
