Welcome to The Land Geyikbayiri. Here, we strive to create a simple, sustainable living space in harmony with nature. For us, accommodation is not just about having a roof over your head; it’s about breathing with the ecosystem around us and showing respect to its rhythm. To help you become part of this journey, we’d like to share a few small but powerful steps you can take during your stay.
1. Use Your Own Bottle and Mug Instead of Single-Use Plastics
Bringing a reusable bottle is not only good for you but also kind to nature. You can fill it with clean drinking water from our taps. This way, you’ll support our zero-waste approach and always have fresh water at hand throughout the day.
2. Contribute to Waste Separation
At The Land, organic waste goes into compost, while recyclables are collected in separate bins. Food scraps return to the soil in our garden. By sorting your waste, you support nature’s cycle and become part of sustainability that goes beyond a single stay.
3. Respect Quiet Hours
Certain times of the day are dedicated to silence so that we can feel nature’s rhythm. Early mornings and the hours after sunset are perfect moments to listen to the birds, insects, and the wind. Your contribution to this silence strengthens the harmony of our shared space.
4. Use Natural Resources Carefully
Water and energy consumption directly affect the environment. Keeping showers short, switching off lights, and unplugging devices when not in use reduce your ecological footprint and support our sustainable energy practices. Small attentions make a big difference.
5. Be Mindful While Walking or Climbing
Geyikbayiri is one of the world’s leading climbing areas and home to rich biodiversity. When hiking or climbing, avoid harming plants, picking flowers, approaching bird nests, or leaving the paths. Protecting nature means protecting the very reason we all come here.
6. Support Local Producers
Buying products from the nearby village supports the local economy and offers you fresh, authentic flavors. You can also join our garden-to-table cycle by enjoying meals prepared with seasonal produce from The Land’s garden.
7. Make Time for a Digital Detox
Phones and laptops are part of daily life, but here we encourage you to take a step back. A digital detox clears your mind and allows you to experience the present moment and the beauty of nature more deeply.
🌱 Small Steps, Big Impact
An eco-friendly stay doesn’t require grand gestures. Carrying a reusable bottle, separating waste, or respecting quiet hours may seem simple, but together they make a lasting difference. During your time at The Land Geyikbayiri, every mindful action you take contributes not only to your personal experience but also to the larger vision of sustainable living.
