Ruins of the Alara Castle (Alara Kalesi) on a rocky hill in Alanya, Turkey.
  • Expect the hike to the top to take at least 45 minutes to an hour, depending on your speed and fitness level.

  • Bring sun protection, such as a wide-brimmed hat and sunscreen. Be prepared for uneven terrain and wear appropriate footwear. The trail is well-marked, but it’s a good idea to have offline maps for navigation.

  • Bring a good flashlight or headlamp as you'll enter tunnels that once formed part of the castle’s defensive architecture on the hike.

  • Due to the castle’s remote location and steep ascents, trekking alone is not recommended; instead, hike with a buddy, a guide, or in a group.

  • It may be tempting to enter the castle ruins, but access is officially restricted as entering some of the unstable buildings may be unsafe.
