Turkey (Türkiye) Olympos Teleferik (Olympus Cable Car)

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
This stunning view is from the summit of Mount Tahtalı (also known as Olympos), reached via the Olympos Teleferik cable car near Kemer, Turkey. At 2,365 metres, it offers panoramic views over the Taurus Mountains and Mediterranean coast. It’s a prime spot for sunset lovers and landscape photographers alike.

Photography Tips

Golden hour is king – aim for sunset when dramatic light rays (like in this shot) cut through the clouds and create a layered mountain backdrop.

Tripod optional – but handy if you’re shooting long exposures as the light fades.

Watch for silhouettes – people along the path add scale and interest.

Travel Information

Take the Olympos Teleferik cable car from the base near Kemer. It runs year-round but check weather conditions before heading up.

Dress warmly – even in summer, it gets chilly at the top.

The last cable car down is usually just after sunset, so don’t miss it!

There’s a cafe and terrace at the summit for warming up and waiting for the right light.
