Kazdağı National Park (Sütüven Waterfall)
Kazdağı Millî Parkı
Known in antiquity as Mount Ida, with fir forests, the Sütüven Waterfall and the Hasanboğuldu pool. A cool summer hiking retreat in the North Aegean.
Mount Kaz, known in antiquity as Mount Ida, is where Paris judged the golden apple in Greek myth. The mountains are known for their oxygen-rich fir and black pine forests and numerous streams. The national park's southern entrance lies near Zeytinli, outside Edremit. A valley trail leads to the Sütüven Waterfall and the Hasanboğuldu pool, a round trip of about 1 to 2 hours, and the forest shade keeps things cool in summer. A small entry fee and parking charge apply. It is about 55 km from Assos and can be combined with Adatepe and Yeşilyurt in one day.
