Guide
The Kayadibi yew is one of the oldest trees in the directorate's monument register: 775 years. It is a common yew, Taxus baccata, 27.5 metres tall, 1.90 metres in trunk diameter and 4.80 metres in girth, growing in forest at the Kayadibi locality in Gökçeağaç village, Yığılca district of Düzce province.
It was registered on 6 September 2002 on 1,000 square metres. The inventory spells its name Posuk and the descriptive text Porsuk; the latter is the Turkish name for yew and matches the scientific name given.
Opening hours are recorded as 08:00 to 20:00.
The route runs from central Düzce northeast to Yığılca, 38 kilometres away, then south from the town towards Gökçeağaç village. The page stops there and does not describe the last stretch.
