Its story

The area was registered as a type A forest recreation site in 2003 and declared a nature park on 11 July 2011. The 4.43-hectare park lies within the Fethiye–Göcek Special Environmental Protection Area. More than half of the park is Turkish red pine forest, and its secondary ecosystem is dunes; sweetgum, oleander and myrtle can be seen, along with species such as squirrels, hedgehogs, hoopoes and tortoises. The facilities include a country restaurant, 21 country cottages, a viewing terrace, and shower and changing cabins. The entrance is reached by driving about 16 km from Fethiye toward Muğla and walking 700 meters from the turn-off.
