Erzincan Food Tours Guide 2026

The culinary side of Erzincan — which food experiences are worth booking and which to do yourself.

By Updated

The short answer: start with Erzincan City Centre Food Walk, Üzümlü Tulum Cheese Farm Visit and Kemaliye (Eğin) Traditional Cuisine Walk. This guide profiles 3+ food tours and culinary experiences in Erzincan, with prices, timing, and the practical notes that decide whether each one earns a place in your plan.

Erzincan is a provincial capital in eastern Turkey set at 1,185 metres in a broad valley carved by the Fırat (Euphrates) River. The province stretches from the volcanic peaks of the Mercan Mountains in the west to the high plateaux bordering Erzurum in the east. Erzincan is renowned throughout Turkey for two things: its exquisite telkari silver filigree jewellery tradition and its Tulum peyniri — a crumbly, pungent cheese matured in a goatskin pouch. The surrounding landscape rewards visitors with deep river gorges, thermal springs, Urartu-era ruins, and one of eastern Turkey's best ski resorts at Ergan Mountain.
