Mount Honaz, Mountain national park in Denizli Province, Turkey.

Mount Honaz rises to 2,571 meters, forming the highest peak in Turkey's Aegean Region with dense forests covering its northern slopes.

The French forces encountered a significant defeat against the Seljuks during the Battle of Mount Cadmus in the medieval period on these mountain slopes.

The Honaz district at the mountain's base organizes an annual cherry festival that includes traditional oil wrestling competitions and agricultural exhibitions.

Two principal entry points serve visitors: the northern entrance from Honaz district and the southern entrance near the Cankurtaran recreation area.

Three plant species grow exclusively on Mount Honaz: a specific type of honeybee plant, mullein, and saffron, among 964 documented plant varieties.
