Опубликовано: 30/12/2025

The Mountains in Alanya or Taurus Mountains (Toros in Turkish) are located in a long row along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. They create stunning landscapes and protect the resort from winds.

History and Geography of the Mountains

The Mountains in Alanya were a shelter for nomads for several thousand years. They had where to stop, because the length of the mountains reaches 1600 km — from the Aegean Sea to the Euphrates. Mountain ranges surrounded Lycia, Pamphylia, Cilicia, Caria, creating protection from unfavorable environmental factors and enemies. The fact that the Mountains in Alanya alternate with relict plants, fairy-tale caves, juicy meadows, fast rivers and waterfalls, makes the resort a paradise for nature lovers.

Benefits of Mountain Tours

Mountains are the best means to diversify a hot beach holiday. It is always cool here, there is a lot of greenery and rare animals, clean fresh air and no resort hustle. Plus, landscapes constantly change during hikes, and the most beautiful places in the region open from a bird’s eye view. Such hikes renew a person, inspire and make you look at your life in a new way.

DIY vs. Guided Tours

You can go to the Mountains in Alanya on your own. In this case, you should study the features of the area, routes, stock up on all necessary equipment (first aid kit, water, snacks, things in case of bad weather).

For the first time, we recommend using tours and visiting mountain landscapes in the company of local experts. The Mountains are visited in tours “Cable Car“, individual excursions, Sapadere and Green Canyon (the latter is available on jeeps). An interesting tour is paragliding, in which you will not only conquer mountain peaks, but also soar over the most beautiful landscapes of the coast in the company of an experienced instructor.
