Information:

How to get there:
This is a drive-up peak with a radar station on top. From Kas, get onto the main Hwy. towards Antalya, a few hundred meters uphill, a road forks sharply left. Take this road and climb the steep hillside. In the first mayor fork, go left. Drive through a small village, continue on the main paved road until it tuns a corner (right) and starts descending. A few hundred meter ahead, a smaller, paved road forks right and uphill. Take this road and follow it until it ends at the radar station.

Comments:
A rest day, but observing that a P600 mountain was located right uphill from our lodging, I set out to explore. The drive offers some nice ocean view. The radar station has the normal signs telling you not to enter, not to take pictures etc. One can walk along the left side of the fence and access the highest point. The area inside the fence is flat. This mountain was most likely a bit higher before the construction work levelled the top.
