Karain Cave is located 25 km from Antalya, we got there by car, the road is good. A very beautiful mountain. Wooden steps with railings are laid right up to the cave itself, although I am 69 years old (I will be in 5 days)), it was easy for me to climb. Perhaps also because it is already December, there is no sweltering heat. The cave is small, the temperature inside is comfortable, the lighting is good, it is very beautiful, bats live, which gives a special atmosphere to the cave. I recommend a visit.

The cave is relatively close to Antalya, accessible only by car, relatively small, excavations are underway, the cave is located at a decent height relative to the parking lot, bats live in the cave, so be prepared

An interesting cave, the entrance is inexpensive. The ascent (stairs) to the entrance is well equipped, there is ample parking below. Available on muzekart

I am not a fan of caves and underground grottoes, but my children visited this place and they liked it. The cave is small, it is high enough, it is somewhat difficult to climb, but it is worth it.

A place with a very ancient history, I recommend visiting with children. It is not cold in the cave, the entrance is 5 euros, but they only accept cash (on Oct 24) euros and lira. Children under 6 were able to pass for free, but this is not indicated anywhere. From the parking lot, you need to climb many steps (15-20 minutes), but there are recreation areas.

An interesting cave. It is a cave, because it is not very big. Several halls, grottoes in it, are still being excavated. The ascent is difficult for the untrained - I would not go with children under 5 years old.. flimsy handrails with rotten posts, steep cliffs very close by, it's not easy to climb the steps in the heat...very high. On the plus side, there are many shops along the road, some of them in the shade. Stunningly beautiful views! We saw a lizard on the way up. It's not so cold in the cave itself, about 20*, no extra clothes are needed. Take water, it is much more expensive in the store. There are toilets with paper and soap. Admission was 100t adult and child 6 years old for free on September 7, 2023. Keep track of the map better, because Yandex first took us to the wrong place - somewhere to a local airfield with cornfields and a Turkish garbage dump😁

Nothing interesting. There was also a museum card along the way in which this landmark is present. If you pay 5 euros to enter a cave where there is a strong smell of bat guano and look especially, then you would not require money back. It's not worth it.

Climb the old stairs with dangling railings to a height of 150m! I do not advise the elderly and sick to climb in the heat. It can be overpowered. The cave is so-so, the child of 6 years old liked it. A good tuvalet. There is a water store, but it is expensive. Entry is free, tickets are 100 liras per adult (September 2023).

We stopped here on the way to Thermissos. I really liked it. The cave is big, there are not many people. As you climb up to the cave, a beautiful view opens up.

A fascinating cave with live bats and very epic sounds, I advise you. It's just a pity that the museum is not open on September 1, 2022, and so you need to take a look at it once. But it should be borne in mind that there is no public transport

The place is essentially about nothing. It's hard to even call it a cave. There is only one room in it. The cave is more like the entrance to a normal cave. There is essentially nothing to see, but the entrance costs 12.5 liras/person. You can climb for the beautiful view of Antalya. We came here only because Theromissos was closed, but we wanted to visit something. To get to this cave only by car or hitchhiking from Theromissos.
