The Pınargözü Cave, discovered in 1964, is considered the longest cave in Turkey, although it has not yet been fully explored, and the precise extent to which it has been explored is in dispute (lengths of 12 or 16 km are given).
It is located 18 kilometres (11 mi) west of the town of Yenişarbademli.

The cave's entrance is on the slopes of Mount Dedegöl at an elevation of 1,550 metres (5,090 ft), in a forested area of the Kızıldağ National Park. It is easily recognized by the stream of water that pours continuously from its mouth, called the Devre Su. A constant wind of up to 166 km/h (103 mph) blows through the cave's narrow opening due to the chimney effect. (Compiled from Wikipedia)
