Koyulhisar; While he leaned his back to Dumanlı (Duman Baba, disciple of Hacı Bektaş Veli) mountain, he stretched his feet to the Kelkit river, known as the fault line. While the botanical structure on the mountain slope it backs on completely matches the plant structure of the Black Sea Region, landslides occur frequently due to the very clayey soil and the steep slope structure of the region, and these are even defined as disaster areas.
Although it is very rich with its forests and natural beauties, the findings and records regarding historical ruins and the past are very weak. There is nothing noteworthy in the district other than a monument and a mosque tomb.
Fossils of sea creatures from paleontological times (calcareous time and later) can be found in and around Eğriçimen Plateau.
