Olympos is known for its charming little beach, pine forest, Antalya Olympos Tree Houses, hotels, and Yanartaş, a natural fire that has been burning for centuries.
Located on Türkiye’s Mediterranean coast, 80 km (50 mi) southwest of Antalya, Olympos is a small village nestled among pine trees, citrus groves and farmlands, 7 km (4 mi) from the main road.
Olympos beach was discovered by backpackers on a tight budget and became popular early on with its unique treehouse camps and cheap guesthouses. The most famous of the Olympos hotels are Kadir's Treehouses and Bayram's Treehouses (which were renovated due to an unfortunate fire accident). Olympia Treehouses are also worth a stay. There are also numerous guesthouses and budget accommodation options in the area.
