Non-stop traffic at Ulugecit Pass

Ulugecit Pass (pronounced Oo-LOO-gachet) is one of the lowest mountain passes in North-West Turkey. TCDD's busy main-line follows the pass and connects the furtile north-central Anatolian plains and the mineral-rich mountains of the Black Sea with the industrial population centers of the Marmara Sea region.
