Black Tree takes it`s names from Karaagac, a hamlet set in the foothills of Mount Babadag, immediately above the Kabak & Faralya Gorge. Road acces is off the Fethiye Kas highway or through Fethiye/Olu Deniz - from sea level a 19 km scenic route leads you up past breathtaking fjorded inlets to limestone plateau.

The Lycian Way (rated by the Sunday Times as one of the ten best walks in the world) starts near Oludeniz and continues up into the hills past Black Tree to descend down to sea level at the Patara Beach.
