Hill above Kalkan - with Turkish flag?

[tkmaxx5]

Hello all,

Newbie to the forum but planning seond trip to Kalkan (Islamlar) this summer.

from our accommodation in Islamlar we could see a Turkish flag on the hillside between Kalkan and Bezirgan (to the left as you looked down the valley from Islamlar to the coast, the Eastern ridge of hills - not far from the radio masts you can drive to).

Has anyone been up there or know how to get to it?!  We tried a few times but couldn't find a way up.  I've scoured google earth and can't find the flag on there, although it looks like there might be routes up the hillside from both the Islamlar and Bezirgan side (including the Lycian way).

It's the one thing we definitely want to try and tick off this summer!

Thanks very much!
