250px|thumb|Eklizi-Bourun - western side of upper plateau 250px|thumb|Angar-Burun - eastern side of upper plateau Chatyr-Dag (; ; ) is a mountainous massif in Crimea, near the Simferopol-Alushta highway.
==Overview== The mountain consists of two plateaus: the lower (north) and the upper (south). The lower plateau slopes gently down to its northern side, which is covered in steppe grass. On its southern end (near the steep slope of the higher plateau), the lower plateau is covered with beech forests and juniper glades. It has many hiking trails and several beautiful caves (listed below). On the east side of the lower plateau there is a grove of yews.
