Its story

Honaz Dağı (Mount Honaz), known in ancient sources as Kadmos, is the massif rising southeast of Denizli. With its 2571-meter summit it is the highest point of the Aegean Region, and it was declared a national park on April 21, 1995. The deep valleys and rocky ridges of its northern slopes are popular for hiking and mountaineering. The Battle of Honaz Dağı, in which the Seljuks defeated a Crusader army in the Middle Ages, also took place on these slopes. In winter it stays covered in snow for a long time.
