The aim of this study is to examine the methods and techniques for the preparation of "Secular Decade Strategic Plans" (SDSP) that are obligatory for the "National Park" and/or "Natural Park" areas and explain "Ecological Reserve, Controlled Use, and Active Use" areas over the example of Soğuksu National Park in Kızılcahamam, Ankara. In the scope of the research, firstly legislative framework and requirements for National Parks in Turkey were evaluated; secondly, Secular Decade Strategic Plan (SDSP) analysis, synthesis, and planning reports of Soğuksu National Park were examined. In the last chapter, the future proposal was developed based on the site surveys and the ongoing implementations. Preparing an SDSP requires an interdisciplinary work and seasonal determinations for a long process from 1.5 to 2 years. In this framework, the study provides an important framework for planning and implementing the process.
