Lake Sünnet is located about 27 km (17 mi) east of Göynük and 105 km (65 mi) southwest of Bolu in Bolu Province. It was formed by landslide in a narrow and deep valley between Kurudağ and Erenler Hill. The lake covers an area of 18 ha (44 acres) at 820 m (2,690 ft) high above mean sea level.[1] Its depth reaches up to 22 m (72 ft). The lake is fed by creeks and springs around.[2]
An 80 ha (200 acres)-area at the lake was registered as A-grade Forest Recreational Area in 1973. On July 11, 2011, the area was declared a nature park by the Ministry of Environment and Forest.[3]
The nature park offers outdoor recreational activities like hiking, biking and picnicking.[2]
A hotel with 45 rooms and 115 beds,[2] a restaurant, an outdoor coffeehouse and a sport court are available at the nature park.[3]
