Mount Chimera is an unusual peak, on the slopes of which natural gas is constantly igniting. It is this legendary peak described in Homer's Iliad as the place where a terrible monster lived.
, Entrance to the attraction is paid. Tourists come here with sausages and marshmallows to roast it on the fire.
The way to the mountain with fiery hearths is a kilometer along the steps, not quite simple, but feasible.
Next is the marked Lycian trail, and you can walk to the pass of Mount Chimera itself. A trail with a constant sharp climb.
Bottom line: Lycian trail – Cirali to Mount Chimera pass.
1️⃣ The level of training is average.
2️⃣ Climb – 400 m . (all the way up, the first 200 meters of the steps)
3️⃣ The length to the pass is 3 km (one way).
The place is really amazing and I recommend visiting it at sunset, take a flashlight or a phone with you). Going back down the stairs in the dark is quite problematic.
It's a beautiful place. There are not many lights from the ground. A very beautiful starry sky. One of the disadvantages is slippery rocks on the trail. Be careful, wear good sports shoes
