Sandıklı Mountains

The mountains around Sandıklı rise above the inland plains southwest of Afyon. Akdağ to the south carries forests and high pastures, while the Kumalar range borders the plain to the east. Limestone ridges and valleys separate the settlements of Sandıklı from the country around Çivril and Dinar. Snow covers the higher summits in winter, and streams descend toward cultivated land on the basin floor.
