These two summits face each other and are separated by a flood valley, which led to the term “mountain range” to be used in some sources in association with Babadağ.

The mass is composed mainly of limestone. It is noted for its rich flora, including the endemic Acer undulatum, and forests of Cedrus libani.

It is also notable for the proximity of its summit to the sea (less than 5 km) which is one of the factors that make it particularly suitable and popular for paragliding.
