Good to know
- There is only one way up and it is steep and rough; the reward is a pine-forest walk and a view over Antalya and the sea from the top (Antalya Ekspres).
- A stretch of the Lycian Way passes here, so wear hiking shoes and carry water.
- Sarcophagi and a temple thought to be for Artemis are among the remains you can still see.
