Olympos Beydaglari National Park

So, is Olympos worth visiting? Absolutely. It may not have the luxury resorts or bustling nightlife of Antalya or Bodrum, but it offers something far more authentic: a combination of history, natural beauty, and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

The tallest of these is Kizlar Sivrisi, 3069ms. This mountain, which enjoys 300 days of sunshine a year, can be climbed within one day and the view of the sea and Antalya is well worth the effort. The sunrise form the peak, for those willing to sacrifice some sleep, is dazzling.

Antalya has the highest number of national parks among the provinces by having five national parks within its boundaries. With a height of 3,000 metres (9,800 ft) and an area of 88,015 hectares (217,490 acres), Mount Ararat National Park is Turkey's largest and highest national park.

The Western Taurus Mountains form an arc around the Gulf of Antalya. It includes the Akdağlar, Bey Mountains, Katrancık Mountain, Kuyucak Mountains, and Geyik Mountains.
