A crisp sea breeze carries the smell of pine as the cable car lifts you from the Mediterranean shore toward a summit that seems to reach for the sky. Windows frame a moving panorama: glittering coastline, cliffs plunging to the sea, and terraces of scrub and forest stepping higher until rock and cloud take over.

History
Mount Tahtali is part of the Beydağları range and has long marked the boundary between coastal Lycian settlements and interior Anatolian routes; modern tourism centers on the dramatic sea-to-summit contrast.
Conservation
Beydağları is managed to balance tourism with habitat protection; stick to marked areas, avoid feeding wildlife, and dispose of waste at base or summit facilities.
