Overview
Methane seeping through cracked rock on the slope above Çıralı has been burning since antiquity, and those flames gave the Chimera its name in Lycian legend. The day pairs Yanartaş with the ruined city of Olympos below, where sarcophagi and a Roman gateway lie among oleander along the stream bed. English-speaking guide, entrance fees, hotel transfers, lunch and water included.

Frequently Asked Questions
Methane-rich natural gas seeps up through fractured rock on the slopes of the ancient Mount Chimaera and ignites on contact with air, so dozens of small flames burn among the stones with no fuel added. Sailors in antiquity used the glow as a landmark, and the site shaped the Greek myth of the fire-breathing Chimaera.
