From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Sultan Mountains (Turkish: Sultan Dağları), also known as Sultan Dagh range or Sultan Dag, is a short mountain range on the western edge of the Anatolian Plateau, Turkey with highest elevation of 1,980 m (6,500 ft).

The town of Sultandağı is their namesake.

They are made up of metamorphic rocks dating from the Lower Cambrian to the Carboniferous period.[1]
