Mount Honaz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mount Honaz (Turkish: Honaz Dağı) is a mountain and a national park located in southwestern Turkey, 17km east of the province seat of Denizli. Denizli's depending township that carries the same name as the mountain, Honaz, is situated on the mountain slopes. At 2,571 m, it is the highest mountain in Turkey's Aegean Region.
The mountain is covered with forests which are particularly dense in its northern side and ice and snow are omnipresent around its summit. There has been a project for establishing a ski resort on the mountain a few years ago when the province's marking governor the late Recep Yazıcıoğlu was in office, but these plans lie idle for the moment despite the suitable conditions the mountain offers for winter sports.
