Ardahan lies at Turkey's far northeastern edge on the border with Georgia, next to Kars, Artvin and Erzurum. With plate code 75, about 100,000 residents and 6 districts, it is one of the country's least populous provinces. Set on a high plateau, it is best known for Lake Çıldır, which freezes in winter and becomes a stage for horse-drawn sleighs. Devil's Castle (Şeytan Kalesi), Ardahan Castle and wide summer pastures are other highlights, and the economy relies largely on livestock.

Winters in Ardahan are long and very cold, and snow, blizzards and ice can affect both town streets and the roads to neighbouring provinces. Travellers heading to Georgia through the Türkgözü border gate in Posof, and drivers using the mountain roads towards Artvin and Kars, keep a close eye on the weather.
