Car
If you're traveling by car, start from the center of Kyrenia (Girne). Head east on the main road towards the Karaman area. Follow signs for Saint Hilarion Castle. After approximately 10 km, you will reach a fork in the road; continue straight to stay on the road leading to the castle. You will eventually arrive at a parking area near the castle. From the parking area, it's a short hike up to the Saint Hilarion View Point, where you can enjoy stunning views of the surrounding area.
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, you can take a bus from Kyrenia to Karaman. Buses frequently depart from the main bus station in Kyrenia. Once you arrive in Karaman, you will need to take a taxi or a local minibus to the Saint Hilarion Castle area. Expect to pay a small fare for the taxi, which should be around 10-15 Turkish Lira. After reaching the drop-off point, it will be a short hike uphill to the Saint Hilarion View Point.
Walking
If you are already in the vicinity of the castle, you can access the Saint Hilarion View Point by walking from the nearest parking area.
