A ten‑minute ascent unspools like a compressed voyage from sea to sky: the gondola lifts you over a serrated ridge of pine, cliffs sliding away to reveal the Mediterranean’s blue sheet below. At 2,365 meters the summit sits above the clouds, where wind and light reshape views of Antalya Bay, Kemer and the ancient ruins of Phaselis into a sharp, moving panorama.
