HARŞENA CASTLE
(Kale) Perched precariously atop rocky Mt Harşena, the kale offers magnificent views
down the valley. The remnants of the walls date from Pontic times.
Travellers of either sex are advised not to go up unaccompanied later in the day. To
reach the castle, turn left when you get to the Büyük Ağa Medresesi and follow the road
for about 1km to a street on the left marked 'Kale'. It's 1.7km up the mountainside to a
car park, then another steep 15-minute climb to the summit.
